Abstract

Monitoring of seismic response of structures has been widely employed for decades in Japan. From the structural point of view, the objectives of seismic monitoring are mainly to verify designed load assumption, evaluate seismic response and structure performance during large earthquake, detecting possible damages due to earthquake and monitoring for verification of structural retrofit. Seismic monitoring is very important for large, important structures and structures with specific features and innovative technologies such as seismic isolation or response control systems. This paper describes several case-studies and lessons learned of seismic monitoring on seismically isolated bridges and buildings in Japan.
