Bridges in Hong Kong. The Wind and Structural Health Monitoring System is a sophisticated bridge monitoring system, costing US$1.3 million, used by the Hong Kong Highways Department to ensure road user comfort and safety of the Tsing Ma, Ting Kau, Kap Shui Mun and Stonecutters bridges. [10]
The value of structural health information is the expected utility gain of a built environment system by information provided by structural health monitoring (SHM).The quantification of the value of structural health information is based on decision analysis adapted to built environment engineering.
Structural health monitoring (SHM) is a rapidly expanding field both in academia and research. [citation needed] Most of the literature on SHM is based on experimental observations and physically expected models. [citation needed] There are some mathematical models that give analytical theory to model the damage. Such mathematical models for ...
Since the late 1980s the structural health assessment and monitoring of bridges represented a critical topic in the field of civil infrastructure management. [6] In the 1990s, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) of the United States promoted and sponsored PONTIS and BRIDGEIT, two computerized platforms for viaduct inventory and monitoring named BMSs.
FEMtools is designed to handle all sizes of finite element and test models for a wide range of industrial applications. Industrial applications can be found in the fields for structural dynamics troubleshooting, NVH, finite element model verification, validation and updating (V&V), uncertainty quantification and propagation, mesh coarsening or refinement, structural health monitoring (SHM ...
The Illinois Structural Health Monitoring Project was founded in 2002 when Professor Bill F. Spencer, director of the Smart Structures Technology Laboratory, and Professor Gul Agha, director of the Open Systems Laboratory, began a collaborative effort between the two laboratories at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign.

In 2010 the name was changed to the present one in order to clarify that the scope of the committee had broadened and now also includes topics such as damage formation and growth in composite structures, structural health and loads monitoring, probabilistic modeling of structural integrity, corrosion control, etc. The acronym ICAF was maintained.
