The present invention is a system for measuring at least one property of concrete that comprises: a housing having an inner cavity, said housing being embeddable into concrete upon deployment of said system in the field; a controller having a form that fits inside said cavity, said controller being retrievable from said cavity after said system is deployed; a sensor detachably connected to the controller such that the sensor becomes embedded into concrete upon said deployment of said system; wherein said system is capable of measuring a property of concrete upon deployment. The present invention also provides a novel method of measuring the strength of concrete comprising attaching the system as described above to a supporting element of a construction structure; immersing said housing and said sensor into concrete whereby the sensor is completely embedded inside the concrete; and measuring data related to the strength of concrete using the sensor and then transmitting the data wirelessly to a remote server.

A method according to the disclosure configures a processor to predict metal loss in a structure for remediation. The method uses a machine learning model, trained based upon historical data, to predict metal loss over locations of a structure at a time of the prediction. The method identifies from among the predicted locations a high-risk location on the structure in which a magnitude of metal loss indicates potential remediation being needed, dispatches a robotic vehicle to the high-risk location on the structure and inspects the high-risk location using the robotic vehicle to confirm whether the magnitude of metal loss at the location requires remediation. In further methods, remediation is performed. In still further methods, a three-dimensional visualization of the structure is generated with an overlay which depicts predicted metal loss over the sections of the structure.

A system to mitigate false trips of a valve that supplies water to a piping system in a fire suppression system includes at least one edge device, a control circuit, and at least one user device. The at least one edge device monitors a parameter corresponding to at least one of a corrosion, a presence of water, a differential pressure across the valve, and a temperature in the piping system of the fire suppression system. The control circuit includes one or more processors and a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the control circuit to receive an indication of the parameter monitored by the at least one edge device, predict whether a valve tripping event is expected to occur based on the received indication, and in response to predicting that the valve tripping event is expected to occur, provide the prediction that the valve tripping event can occur for remedial action. The at least one user device presents display data regarding the prediction.
