This work presents the design, construction and testing of a new embedded sensor\nsystem for monitoring concrete curing. A specific mote has been implemented to withstand the\naggressive environment without affecting the measured variables. The system also includes a real-time\nmonitoring application operating from a remote computer placed in a central location. The testing\nwas done in two phases: the first in the laboratory, to validate the functional requirements of the\ndeveloped devices; and the second on civil works to evaluate the functional features of the devices,\nsuch as range, robustness and flexibility. The devices were successfully implemented resulting in a\nlow cost, highly reliable, compact and non-destructive solution.
