Initial Experimental Test of the Port Bridge for Structural Health Monitoring

Abstract:

The Port Bridge across Danube in Bratislava is about 461 m long with 4 spans. The bridge was designed for both a highway and simultaneously for two railway tracks. Nowadays the construction is overloaded and that is why the structural health monitoring of the bridge is being developed. The test setup consists of two measuring polygons. This setup needed an original LabVIEW program, which has been developed in cooperation with experts – electrical engineers and experts on structural mechanics. Main problem was to achieve a synchronization of both measuring polygons connected by Wi-Fi antennas. Except of software difficulties there were complications during in-situ measurement, like cable connection between highway and railway level and especially the time synchronization of the traffic video and measurement. The measurement has been done and some eigenmodes have been identified from ambient data.
