Structural Health Monitoring offers a comprehensive range of services for the assessment of the condition and the load-bearing capacity of structures.
Structural Health Monitoring comprises the monitoring and analysis of structures as well as the development of new systems and components of measurement and instrumentation in the scope of national and international research projects.
- Measurements and monitoring at bridges and other structures in the scope of BRIMOS®-tests
- Permanent instrumentation of endangered structures
- Measurement based analysis of buildings and big structures

- Special analyses with BRIMOS® Structural Health Monitoring & Finite Element comparative simulations
- Determination of the real load-bearing capacity and the resilience of supporting structures
- Load-bearing tests and assessment of structures supported by measurements, in particular dynamic measurements (bridges, industrial structures, wind power plants, offshore structures etc.)
- Measurements at wires, stay cables etc. (force determination, vibration damping, assessment of vibration exposure)
- Planning and dimensioning of cable vibration damping measures (vibration dampers, connecting wires)
- Inspection and approval of vibration dampers by measurements
- Measurement and assessment of structural vibrations regarding their impacts on the structure and the users (vibration comfort)
