Photo-based structural monitoring. Simpler.
Empower civil engineers to perform structural analyses with Straintest Virtual Sensors. The flexible and innovative way to monitor structural displacement using smartphones.
Global view
3D models and blueprint integration
Straintest lets you overlay structural movement data directly onto 3D models and blueprints. Engineers can upload BIM or CAD files to visualize displacements at key points—like cracks, joints, or beams—in spatial context. This makes it easy to spot anomalies, track changes over time, and generate clear visual reports. Integration with digital models turns inspections into actionable insights, improving decision-making and communication.

concrete
the cornerstone of modernity
concrete is ubiquitous in global construction. It shapes vital infrastructure, from housing to transportation systems. Preserving it in good shape is what guarantees our safety and the value of many of our most important assets.

one symptom, many causes
cracks are a common symptom of structural distress. We help monitor them, to reveal their cause and better plan building and infrastructure maintenance. Crack causes include:
elastic deformation
Structural components like walls and beams undergo elastic deformation due to load, causing cracks.
settlement
of soil
Differential settlement or movement in the soil beneath a structure can cause cracks.
chemical permeability
Sulphate attacks on cement products or corrosion of reinforcement in concrete may result in cracking.
structural
design flaws
Bad design or construction can result in insufficient reinforcement and increased stress concentration.
next-generation monitoring
monitor your cracks in 4 simple steps.
stick our targets
step 1
place one of our small targets on each side of the crack.
snap pictures
step 2
take pictures of the crack every time you want to measure the growth of the crack.
measure evolution
step 3
access reports detailing the 3D time evolution of the crack.
get feedback
step 4
receive feedback from human experts or our AI-based analytics engine. Discover the nature of the structural issue and be advised on possible mitigations.

The sensor of the future
With the advancement of commercial camera technology, we now have the ability to capture data with remarkable precision using devices that fit in our pockets. Information with resolutions as fine as 50 microns (roughly the size of a pollen grain) can now be captured in everyday photos. At Straintest, we harness this cutting-edge technology, expanding software capabilities to fully utilize the potential of modern cameras. By shifting the complexity from hardware to software, we enable more efficient and cost-effective monitoring of structural health.
EVOLUTION REPORTS
from photos to insights
we empower civil engineers and specialists to understand crack causes and recommend effective mitigations. It's not just about monitoring cracks; it's about monitoring all 3D movements. Straintest help you predict, plan, and preserve structural integrity.
