Bridge health monitoring is to obtain the information on bridge condition through online monitoring of the structural performance. Also, health monitoring helps to verify the design approaches and to validate the analytical models of bridge structures. In addition, the unknown issues and the uncertainties involved in the structural mechanics and the environmental condition of a bridge may be studied through health monitoring. HCCS Instrumentation products are used to monitor the health of a bridge during its construction, its service life, and while adjacent construction takes place. Tiltmeters, inclinometers, piezometers, strain gauges, displacement sensors, settlement monitoring system, and anemometers are commonly used to monitor the bridge geometry. |
