Concrete temperature and maturity monitoring has never been easier thanks to the fully wireless SmartRock sensor that can be embedded in concrete.
MOBILE-BASED
With free mobile app for iOS and Android platforms, almost all the users can connect to SmartRock on their phones!
EASY SETUP
In just 3 steps, SmartRock can be setup on any construction job site
1) Tag Sensor 2) Install 3) Pour Concrete
WHAT IS SMARTROCK?
SmartRock Wireless Temperature Monitoring Sensor
SmartRock is a rugged and waterproof wireless sensor/logger for monitoring the temperature of concrete.
SmartRock™ can be installed in the formwork on the steel reinforcement. Right after pouring, SmartRock will monitor the temperature of concrete. Temperature measurements are recorded continuously. The results can be downloaded anytime using the SmartRock mobile app.
The continuous monitoring of concrete temperature can be used as a QC/QA method as well as maturity-based strength prediction. The field monitoring of real-time concrete strength can also help with optimizing the formwork removal time, application of load on the structure, and adjusting the curing temperature of concrete onsite.

FEATURED PROJECTS
Many construction companies across Canada and the USA are now using SmartRock to improve the efficiency in their projects.
Here are a few examples:
OTTAWA, CANADA
OLRT, light rail train tunnel and stations
SmartRock was utilized for temperature monitoring in the lining of the tunnel where high early strength flowable concrete was used, as well as in mass concrete footings in the stations for temperature gradient monitoring.
CHICAGO, IL, USA
High-Rise and Airport
SmartRocks was used on 3 high-rise PT structures, and for confirming strength on a low strength mixture covering an EMAS system to determine when to open the airport runway for use on critical closure.
DENVER, CO, USA
Railway superstructure
SmartRock sensors were used to monitor the concrete temperature according to the specification. The wireless sensor allowed measurement during curing under the insulating blankets.
See what our customers think about our SmartRock.
Monitoring of the real time strength using SmartRocks has allowed us to advise airport personnel when to open a runway for use on critical 56 hour closure. Their ability to remain below the top slab elevation allows workmen to place and finish the concrete without disturbing the sensors. The software has been excellent in strength estimation.
The SmartRock has been a good investment in that it’s extremely user friendly, convenient, and saves us time. I especially love that it’s wireless, because now we don’t have to go looking under blankets to find sensors or worry about making a physical connection. This alone saves us about an hour every time we record temperature.
The use of the Smartrock is extremely beneficial during the winter season. We find them particularly useful when building our bridge decks and drilled shafts. The use of the sensor provides the ability to monitor temperature in real-time, and this is a key aspect for working during the colder months. Overall, the Smartrock is easy to use, quick to install and collects data effectively. I have nothing negative to say about the SmartRock, it is a truly innovative product.
