2089866 9205400 PCTABS00011 Devices and methodology are provided for measuring mechanical strain in a structural member (632). The devices and methodology utilize a material which undergoes a change in phase when strained so that measurement of the phase change indicates strain. Preferably the phase change material is a transformation induced plasticity steel alloy. The elements may be configured as gauges (621-625) secured to a structural member, but also the elements may perform as part of the structure. A plurality of elements may be organized into a monitoring system (610), either passive or active, for a complex structure (600).
