Structural Health Monitoring at the Heart of the Decision-Making Process for Structural Asset Management
The structural health monitoring (SHM) of buildings, infrastructures, and civil engineering & industrial equipment is in full expansion. One of the key drivers behind the ever-increasing need for SHM is that a major part of the infrastructures has been built during the last century with life-limited materials and processes.
With the development of digital sensing technologies, telecommunications and the algorithmic processing of data in real time, it is today possible to complement the visual inspections with continuous real-time structural health monitoring. It is imperative that inspection and monitoring be considered as complementary activities to improve the safety and the on-time maintenance of infrastructures, when and where it is deemed required. An innovative process is presented that proposes the integration of such key activities through the life cycle of the structural asset into the decision-making process.
The solution presented proposes the enhancement of the management of the structural asset knowledge by knowing the state, the behavior and sustainability (health) of the works, and to monitor them continuously and in real time to improve safety and enhance longevity of structures.
