STRUCTURAL HEALTH MONITORING SOFTWARE

Acquire data on the behavior of structures and intervene promptly in case of anomalies or failures

The collection of data and information on the behaviour of structures under external actions is important to ensure the safety and durability of infrastructures, especially for those that are subject to strong stresses such as bridges, roads, dams etc.

With usBIM the data acquisition takes place through the use of sensors that measure variables such as wind pressure, rain, temperature and traffic etc. The data are:

• acquired with a sampling frequency of 200 Hz;
• subjected to a pre-treatment (elimination of the effects of noise, detection and elimination of "spikes", elimination of drifts from scratch, control of the correctness of the acquisition and validation of the data);
• transformed into the quantities related to the variables identified as the monitoring objective;
• analysed to determine the state of the structure and identify any problems;
• used to develop preventive maintenance solutions.

In addition, usBIM allows you to identify ongoing degradation processes, highlighted by unexpected structural responses to certain external stresses. The comparison of the acquired values with the historical data allows to evaluate whether the detected discrepancies are temporary or if they indicate a structural anomaly in progress.

The acquisition and processing of this data makes it possible to constantly monitor the health of the structure and to intervene promptly in case of problems, improving security and prolonging the life of the infrastructure.

Constantly monitor the state of the asset and promptly intervene with preventive maintenance activities

Constant monitoring of the state of the asset is particularly important for critical infrastructures, such as bridges, dams, roads etc where it is essential to ensure maximum user safety and prevent the risk of structural failure.

With usBIM you can monitor the status of a facility in real time and quickly identify any structural problems, such as cracks or breakages, so you can schedule preventive maintenance interventions in a timely manner.

Thanks to reporting and analysis features, you get periodic reports with images, description, graphic drawings, monitoring system diagrams, control protocol and emergency management manual. The structural health monitoring software also allows the management of alarms, with the possibility of preparing a control protocol that defines the contingent limit states for the structure, the methods of communication of alert situations, the actions to be taken in the different possible alarm situations and the organizational chart of the employees involved in the management of the emergency.

Looking for a structural health monitoring system?

• Issuance of warnings in case of faults or malfunctions
  Take advantage of an alerting system in case of faults or malfunctions of the sensors or acquisition control units.
• Configuration of instrumentation connected even remotely
  Set up the connected instrumentation and recalibrate the sensors remotely.
• Configuring alarm thresholds
  Define alarm thresholds for monitored quantities.
• Centralized management of all works subject to monitoring
  You have a centralized cloud archive that allows you to have a complete and detailed view of the status of all works and to intervene promptly in case of emergencies or failures.
