The use of multifunctional technical textiles represents an opportunity for the construction sector to address some of the limitations of existing structures and to contribute to a radical transformation of the building environment, meeting the expectations of stakeholders and the community, and capable of responding to changing needs. Multifunctional technical textiles are being developed for the reinforcement and structural health monitoring of buildings and geotechnical structures, such as railways and highway embankments and dykes, with the incorporation of sensing elements for localised or distributed measurements. |
