Abstract
Weigh-in-motion (WIM) systems provide the opportunity to measure the weight of vehicles, including individual axles, as they pass over the pavement. This study focuses on the evaluation of different WIM systems, the applications of WIM sensors, and the comparison of existing WIM sensors, particularly smart concrete sensors with self-sensing capabilities. To achieve this objective, various types of concrete sensors were investigated. These sensors are capable of measuring weight while in motion, monitoring the structural health of pavements, and collecting traffic data. Smart concrete sensors with self-sensing capabilities are composed of concrete composites that contain conductive or semi-conductive fillers, enabling the measurement of stress and strain through piezoresistive properties. The findings indicate that self-sensing concrete sensors can be effectively utilized for traffic properties measurement; however, ensuring their reliability in real-field conditions and practical applications necessitates further research.
