After reviewing various algorithms for 2D Digital Image Correlation (DIC), Zero-Normalized Cross-Correlation (ZNCC) is selected for deformation measurement. The impact of several other factors on DIC measurement accuracy has been investigated, including the type of imaging sensors, the contrast and pattern of a specimen, and searching window size. Optimal option of these factors is proposed. The technique is utilized in the experiment of applying static loading on a replica of a concrete structural component used for Sydney Harbour Bridge. Test results presented in the paper include DIC measurements and validation data from conventional sensors.
