Abstract
Structural health monitoring (SHM) provides a useful tool for ensuring integrity and safety, detecting the evolution of damage, and estimating performance deterioration of civil infrastructures. A number of civil infrastructures under construction have greatly motivated and promoted development and application of SHM in mainland China. In the past decade, Chinese researchers have made great progress in all aspects of SHM, including advanced smart sensors, wireless sensors and sensor networks; data acquisition systems, data communication systems, signal processing systems, data management systems, and system integrated techniques; approaches to damage detection, model updating and safety evaluation; design and implementation of SHM systems for practical civil infrastructure; and data interpretation and utilization. Additionally, almost 100 bridges, offshore platforms, tall buildings, spatial structures, underground infrastructures and pavement have been implemented with SHM systems in mainland China at present. This chapter summarizes the state-of-the-art application of SHM for civil infrastructures in mainland China, in particular sensors, sensor technology, and applications of SHM systems.
