Monitoring of Bridge Structures Equipment

The objectives of this project are: (1) the development and construction of a field data acquisition system capable of acquiring all the possible measurands involved in a load test; and (2) acquisition of the tools needed for the installation of the sensors. The proposed project uses the results and experience gained in prior studies at the University of Missouri, Rolla (UMR). The equipment enhanced the research capabilities at UMR.
