An assembly of nine vibrating‐wire strain gauges designed for the measurement of internal strain is described. Tests have been carried out on concrete specimens containing nine‐gauge devices of different size and stiffness. The processing of the gauge readings is outlined and the results of the test series are critically discussed.
