The Use of Structural Dynamics for information
leading to rational decision making
• All structures move all the time
• The movements contain information
• The information is recorded and decoded using an SKG
(StructuroCardiograph TM)
• The information is analogous to an EKG for humans
• Armed with information about the behavior and state of the
structure a management approach can be tailored to the needs
of the community
Structural Health Monitoring
• “Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is defined as the use of
on-structure sensing system to monitor the performance of the
structure and evaluate its health state.” Chan, T
• Accelerometers, Anometers, Thermometers, Strain guages
• Statistical pattern recognition
– Operational Evaluation,
– Data Acquisition and Cleansing,
– Feature Extraction and Data Compression,
– Statistical Model Calibration
• Elastic range, Plastic range, discrete elements
Structural Health Monitoring
• Simple or Complex
• Discrete Element or Whole of Structure
• Instant in Time, Periodic or Continuous
• Granularity vs Data Volume
What is the intended Outcome of the monitoring?
- Types of instruments
- Sensitivity of instruments
- Record frequency
Structure Stiffness, Damping and Frequency
• We use the displacement per unit force
• For mode ‘r’
• It is like the ‘spring constant’ for the structure

• In the elastic range 𝑴𝒓 is unchanging (so long as the mode shape is unchanging).
• Characteristic is a function of frequency and damping

Basic Theory underlying
STRAAM Technology• Measurement of Frequencies of Resonance
– This allows the mathematical definition of the structure as it is
– Technically known as ‘Structural Identification’; Baseline
– Frequency change = loss of capacity
• The use of damping measurement as a damage indicator
– Damping is a measure of energy dissipation
– Damage causes energy dissipation
– STRAAM’s model of damping is based on fracture mechanics
• Build and Claibrate FEM– Memoralise as is condition and compare to design
Assessment of a structure – 8 steps
1. Determine design load
2. Estimate probability of occurrence of design load
3. Measure the response of the structure
4. Determine the displacement per unit force
5. Extrapolate from measured to reference displacement
6. Find the ratio of measured to design forces for reference
displacement
7. Determine the return period of an event that takes the
structure to the reference displacement
8. Apply a hazard assessment
Basis for alarms Changes in the 1st mode. Any alarm can be
created based on specific failure modes

Bridge 1
1. The Bridge was monitored on February 21st, 2017 for its
response to randomly induced actions from the
environment.
2. The response of the bridge was analysed so as to
establish its frequencies of resonance, the amount of
energy dissipation, and the overall response.
3. A reduced node finite element model (RNFEM) was
constructed, and the measured response was used to
calibrate the RNFEM.
4. The calibrated RNFEM was then used to assess the
response of the bridge to various combinations of T44,
and B Double induced loads.
5. The response of the bridge was found to be well inside
the performance indicators recommended by AASHTO, at
a maximum of 8.4 mm vertical displacement, against a
performance requirement of a maximum of 26.4 mm.
Bridge 1
1. Bridge remained open for duration of the data collection (one lane closed)
2. Time on site approximately 2 hours
3. An existing traffic control window was used (other works on bridge during data collection)
4. Ambient wind and traffic loads provided excitation of structure
Bridge 1
1. Harmonic frequencies for bridge (x, y and z) identified
2. Finite element model calibrated
3. Calibrated finite element model used to confirm bridge load capacity
4. Several load conditions modelled

Bridge 2
The bridge was monitored on November 13th, 2017 for its
response to randomly induced actions from the environment.
The response of the bridge was analysed so as to establish
its frequencies of resonance, the amount of energy
dissipation, and the overall response.
The results will be used to track the dynamic changes to the
bridge during the renovation process.
An anomaly at low amplitude is present in the Randec
Signature. This type of anomaly is generally indicative of a
weakness in the structure.
Bridge 2
1. Bridge remained open for duration of the data collection (one lane closed)
2. Time on site approximately 6 hours
3. A full bridge inspection was conducted by Hatch during the data acquisition
4. Ambient wind and traffic loads provided excitation of structure
Bridge 2
The following points should be noted for the measured structure:
1. The first vertical bending mode which is reflective of the load carrying capacity of the structure is identified at 2.47
Hz. The middle of the Eastern extremity is moving appoximatley 10% more than the Western extremity at the center of
the North Span.
2. The first translational mode of vibration is 3.86 Hz. This mode of vibration is concentrated in the center of the bridge
with minimal movement at the abutments. The column contributes directly to this mode’s defining parameters.
3. The first vertical anti-symmetric torsional mode is measured to be 5.35 Hz. This mode of vibration involves the
Eastern and Western extremities roatating about the center line of the bridge.
Bridge 2
1. The left abutment is displacing vertically slightly more than the right abutment
2. There is an anomaly between damping and frequency at low amplitude; frequency
decreases and damping increases. This anomaly is most likely due to loss of
energy at the abutment.
Bridge 2
The baseline response of the bridge has been detailed. The following points should be noted:
1. With the exception of the reported differential settlement of the abutments, there are a minimal
number of anomalies present in the recordings that indicate significate structural damage.
2. The first three modes of vibration have been characterized above and will be used as a baseline to
compare with future measurements.
3. The Randec Signature presented in Mode 1 shows an anomaly at low amplitude. This sudden
reduction in frequency and increase in damping generally indicates energy dissipation associated
with the interaction of the bridge with abutments (and therefore mainly the Northern one). As the
improvements to the structure conducted by Mainmark are progressing, changes to this anomaly
will be tracked and reported on.
Final points
1. Rapid, real-time, non evasive
2. Establish a ‘baseline’
3. Calibrated FEM
