This　paper　presents　an　experimental　method　to　investigate　the　attenuation　performance　of　stress　waves　in　concrete　structures　embedded　in　piezoelectric　ceramics.　To　get　the　research　objective,　a　series　of　test　were　hold.　The　relationship　curve　between　the　frequency　and　the　attenuation　coefficient　was　fit.　The　calculation　method　for　propagation　distances　of　stress　waves　with　constant　amplitudes　and　frequencies　in　the　concrete　medium　was　proposed.　The　research　results　show　that　the　relationship　curve　of　attenuation　coefficient　and　frequency　conform　to　the　cubic　polynomial　function　approximately.　The　attenuation　performance　for　the　concrete　structure　embedded　into　piezoelectric　ceramics　is　relevant　to　the　frequency,　the　amplitude　and　the　medium　character,　and　the　frequency　is　the　main　factor.　The　research　results　of　this　paper　can　provide　an　effective　evidence　for　correctly　placing　transducers.　©　(2013)　Trans　Tech　Publications,　Switzerland.
