Smart Light transmitting concrete is a concrete based building material with itstransparent and smart sensing properties through embedding light optical elements such asOptical fibers. Due to "green" requirements and safe evaluation for engineering structures haveobtained the worldwide attention, in this experiment development of Smart light transmittingconcrete based on its excellent properties of transparent and smart sensing. By dealing with itsusage and also the advantages it brings in the field of smart construction, we find that it canreduce the power consumption of illumination and use the optical fiber to sense the stress ofstructures and also use this concrete as an architectural purpose for good aesthetical view of thebuilding.The work presented in this project reports an investigation on the behavior of concrete andmortar with optical fiber. A total of 45 concrete and mortar cube will be casted to study theeffect of concrete and mortar with optical fiber and to compare the compressive strengthbetween normal mix concrete to normal mix concrete with optical fiber and normal mortar tonormal mortar with optical fiber after 7 days, 14 days and 28 days respectively.
