Abstract
High-precision strain gauges play an important role in engineering, especially in the fields of industry and transportation. However, operated equipment in Vietnam is normally imported with high cost and the accompanying softwares, which export only raw results of the measurement, leads to difficulties in post-processing of studies using strain measurement. Moreover, strain measurement in construction monitoring with long wires would be a huge challenge due to the accuracy of the equipment. In this paper, a solution to design and manufacture a strain measuring device with high accuracy of ± 0,2% based on Strain Gauge sensor is presented. The device includes a signal processing circuit that interfaces with the sensor connected to the processor and communicates about the software on the computer to display and record the measurement results. Measurement results verified by the laboratory strain gauge DRA-30A, which shows our equipment operate with the same accuracy to the verified equipmentReferences
