  |  INSTALLING THE GAUGES IN CONCRETE  |  GEOKON

6.

Attach the plucking coil using a hose clamp. Tie the instrument cable off to 
one of the rebar using nylon cable ties.

Suspending Model 4200/4200L/4200HT Strain Gauges Between Rebar

ALTERNATIVE SUSPENSION METHOD

Tie two short pieces of steel rebar to the existing rebar using nylon cable ties, as 
shown in the figure below. Then tie the strain gauge to the short pieces of rebar 
again using more nylon cable ties. This method avoids the resonance problems 
associated with the previous method.
