FIELD: construction.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the system of "smart" cable for bridge with the use of built-in sensors based on fibre Bragg gratings (FBG) and can be used in cable load-bearing structures of cable, suspension, arched and other types of bridges. System comprises anchor glass, plate for separating wires, connecting clutches, sensor based on fibre diffraction grating and cable itself. Sensor based on fibre diffraction grating comprises strain gauge 9 with fibre diffraction grating and temperature sensor with fibre diffraction grating. The ends of optical fibres of strain gauge 9 and temperature sensor are led outwards. Assembled strain gauge 9 is rigidly connected with the steel wire in the connection coupling. Assembled temperature sensor is suspended on the steel wire in the connection coupling. Openings are punched in the plate to separate wires. Protective steel tube is dipped in advance in the front part into the connecting sleeve and anchor glass.
EFFECT: system improves survival of sensors and optic fibre during manufacture and operation of cable, provides reliable sealing of sensors and permits to transmit signals effectively and accurately from fibre diffraction gratings outward from cable.
