description | The Dongbao River Xin’an Bridge is the first hybrid continuous girder bridge with corrugated steel webs in China. To assess its service conditions and guarantee its safe operation, a continuous structural health monitoring (SHM) system is designed in this paper. The SHM system consists of a sensor system, a data acquisition and transmission system, and a data processing and control system. The measurement parameters, including vehicle loads, temperature, deformation, strain, and acceleration, are determined, and a detailed sensor layout is given based on the mechanical characteristics of the bridge. The SHM system adopts a bus gateway and an IP modem to collect and transmit sensor data. Monitoring data from October 9, 2022, to March 16, 2023, were analyzed. The probability distributions of the daily maximum temperature differences and vehicle loads are reconstructed. The correlation of girder deflection and strain with ambient temperature has been demonstrated. The identification and tracking of modal parameters are implemented. The results show that the maximum deflection is within the threshold range and that the modal parameters are basically stable. All the results demonstrate the healthy structural condition of the bridge and the excellent working performance of the SHM system. The collected data provide scientific guidance for the performance evaluation of the Dongbao River Xin’an Bridge and the optimized design of similar bridges. |
