Strain transfer relationship between surface-bonded plastic optical fibers(POFs)and concrete under different layouts is analyzed, based on which a strain transfer model between surface-bonded POFs and concrete is constructed. Numerical simulation is carried out to verify the correctness of the model and sensitivity analysis of the main parameters in the model is studied. The results show that, the width, thickness and shape of the adhesive layer have little effect on the strain transfer. In favor of the effect of strain transfer, it is suggested that the elastic modulus of the solidified glue is about 1GPa and the POF is bonded close to the surface of the concrete with the bonding length greater than 300mm.
