Chapter 10

Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is the process of detecting and characterizing damages in engineering structures to ensure structural integrity and safety of buildings, bridges and all kinds of engineering structures). The monitoring is automated and can continuously monitor and detect state (such as strain, stress, and temperature) and damages (such as cracks, holes, and ruptures) of structures with minimum human intervention. Using SHM we can optimize the maintenance of the structures maximizing the service life of the structure and the safety of its usage.
