UHPC Structural Health Monitoring Patent Snapshot
The patent space for UHPC structural health monitoring is at the very earliest stage of formation, with a single patent family on record — filed in 2025 — jointly attributed to Southeast University and a Jiangsu materials company. The field is effectively open, with no established leaders, no contested routes, and no prior-art density to navigate.
Two co-applicants hold 100% of the ranked corpus — the field is nascent and uncontested
The current corpus consists of a single patent family, with Southeast University and Jiangsu Lvmaigou New Materials Technology Development Co., Ltd. appearing as co-filers. Together they account for the entirety of the top-100 ranked applicants’ combined total, reflecting an absolute concentration rather than a competitive one.
There is no tier gap to characterise — with only one filing on record, no second or third tier exists. The top-five filers’ share of the ranked applicants visible in this query is 100%, which in this case means the space has not yet attracted multiple independent actors.
| # | Applicant | Patent records | Share |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Southeast University | 1 | |
| 2 | Jiangsu Lvmaigou New Materials Technology Development Co., Ltd. | 1 |
The co-applicants’ shared focus on foundations and earth-drilling subclasses (E02D) suggests the initial framing of UHPC health monitoring is directed at underground or foundation-level structural applications rather than superstructure or bridge-deck use cases.
Because this corpus contains only one patent family filed in 2025 — well within the 18–24 month publication lag window — the true volume of recent activity may be higher than the current count reflects. The evidence snapshot should be revisited as filings published through late 2026 and beyond become available.
A single 2025 filing marks the start of detectable activity; seven IPC branches are already touched
The annual trend shows zero activity across 2017–2024, with the sole patent record appearing in 2025. Despite this minimal volume, the technology composition already spans seven IPC classes, indicating that even this first filing covers a broad technical surface.
Annual filing trend
All activity concentrates in 2025, with no filings in any earlier year in the review window. The 2025 count is subject to publication lag and may understate current activity; the 2026 bar should be treated as incomplete.

Seven IPC classes appear — spanning civil foundations (E02D), building structures (E04B), structural components (E04C), scaffolding and formwork (E04G), general measurement and recording (G01D), machine and structure testing (G01M), and material analysis (G01N) — suggesting the filing integrates sensing, structural, and materials-testing elements within a single disclosure.

Ranked by total forward citations. Citation counts favour older and broadly cited patent families, and broad or adjacent patents may appear when they match the search scope. Treat this section as citation context, not as a curated list of the most topic-specific patents. Some patent titles may be shown in their original, non-English language where an accurate translation could not be guaranteed.
Assignee snapshot from the current evidence set
The applicants below are visible in this query result. Because the evidence set is relatively small, read this section as a directional snapshot rather than a full competitive ranking.
Southeast University
Southeast University appears as a co-applicant on the single patent record in the corpus. Its technology emphasis, shared with its co-filer, sits entirely in the E02D foundations and earth-drilling subclasses. No prior-period filing history is available in this corpus, so no momentum trend can be stated. As a leading Chinese civil-engineering research university, its involvement signals that UHPC health monitoring is being developed from an academic research base.
patent records: 1Jiangsu Lvmaigou New Materials Technology Development Co., Ltd.
Jiangsu Lvmaigou New Materials Technology Development Co., Ltd. is the industrial co-applicant on the same single record, sharing identical IPC coverage in E02D subclasses. Its participation alongside Southeast University suggests a technology-transfer or joint-development arrangement typical of Chinese university–enterprise collaboration programmes. No momentum data is available.
patent records: 1Frequently asked questions
The current evidence shows 1 patent family in scope, with all activity concentrated in a single record filed in 2025. This count may increase as patents filed recently clear the publication lag.
Southeast University and Jiangsu Lvmaigou New Materials Technology Development Co., Ltd. are the only two applicants on record, appearing as co-filers on the single patent family. No other applicants appear in the current corpus.
China is the only jurisdiction with a filing on record. No US, EP, PCT, or other national filings appear in the current evidence.
Seven IPC classes appear across the single record: E02D (foundations and earth drilling), E04B (building structures), E04C (structural components), E04G (scaffolding and formwork), G01D (measuring and recording), G01M (machine and structure testing), and G01N (material analysis and testing).
A lifecycle stage cannot be determined from the current evidence. With only one filing on record — appearing in 2025 — the field is best characterised as pre-emergent. The annual filing trend shows no activity before 2025 in the review window.
The only observed collaboration is the co-filing between Jiangsu Lvmaigou New Materials Technology Development Co., Ltd. and Southeast University. This university–industry pairing is the sole data point available and is consistent with early-stage applied research in Chinese academic-enterprise partnerships.

Patent data carries inherent limitations: recent filings (typically the most recent 18–24 months) are under-counted due to standard publication lag; counts may be reported at either a patent-family or a patent-record basis and are not always directly comparable; classification, applicant-name, and citation data may contain errors, duplicates, or omissions; and the underlying search query defines and constrains the scope shown. As a result, the analysis may be incomplete or inaccurate and may not reflect the full technology landscape.
