In this paper, we demonstrate a single-mode–multimode–single-mode (SMS) fiber structure to measure compressive strain in the elastic regime of a reinforced concrete beam. The fabrication method used to produce a 3.12 m reinforced concrete beam that met the Euro code (EC2) requirements was also demon...
