Abstract
Different measurement methodologies have been used in bridge monitoring due to seismic, environmental and operating loading. Moreover, bridge monitoring systems have influence in the smooth operation of the traffic load in big cities and thus it’s crucial to encourage monitoring techniques that are flexibly adaptable to various construction building models. Even though a lot of research has been performed in bridge health monitoring in order to identify damages or deterioration of the structural elements there is still a need for a method that could combine multisensor techniques in big data processing for multisource loading. The behavior of the cable-stay bridge model is being monitored via acoustic emission and 2D laser Doppler vibrometry systems. In each case, both static and dynamic loading conditions have been applied. The goal is to correlate the results of these nondestructive evaluation techniques during static and dynamic response of different support situations. The purpose of this work is to improve bridge design and enable the detection of distributed failures during a multifactor loading system.
