With the acceleration of urbanization, the importance of urban infrastructure has become increasingly prominent. As an important part of urban transportation, the safety and stability of bridges have a crucial impact on the normal operation of cities. The notice of the "Three-year Action Plan for the Construction of Nanyang Urban Infrastructure Lifeline Safety Project (2023-2025)" emphasizes the construction and development of the bridge monitoring system, and further highlights the key role of this system in ensuring the safety of the city's lifeline.
WITBEE bridge monitoring system is a comprehensive system integrating data collection, processing, analysis and early warning. It monitors the structural health of the bridge in real time by installing sensors, cameras and other equipment, obtains key parameters such as strain, displacement, vibration, temperature, etc., and then uses computer technology to process and analyze the data to achieve a comprehensive grasp of the working state of the bridge. Once an abnormality is found, the system will immediately issue an early warning to provide decision-making basis for the management department and relevant institutions to prevent accidents.
Wanbin Technology uses river and lake water level monitors, intelligent structure diagnostics, river and lake flow velocity monitors, Beidou ground-based enhanced micro base stations, etc., which are installed at various key positions of the bridge to summarize key data information such as displacement monitoring, deceleration monitoring, settlement monitoring, cable force, vibration, etc., so as to realize all-round health perception of the bridge.
1.Safety assurance: Through real-time monitoring and early warning, the structural damage or abnormal stress changes of the bridge can be detected in time, and the safety accidents caused by structural failure can be effectively prevented, and the safety of citizens' lives and property can be guaranteed.
2.Extend the life of the bridge: Accurate monitoring data can help managers understand the actual working status of the bridge and reasonably arrange the repair and maintenance plan, so as to improve the service life of the bridge.
3.Decision support: The large amount of data and analysis results provided by the system can provide a scientific basis for decision-makers, optimize the management strategy of bridges, and improve management efficiency.
4.Emergency response: In the event of an emergency or natural disaster, the bridge monitoring system can quickly provide the real-time status of the bridge, provide key information for emergency response, and ensure the smooth progress of rescue work.
5.Scientific research: Long-term and continuous monitoring data is helpful for researchers to conduct research on structural health diagnosis, damage identification, durability assessment, etc., and promote the progress of bridge engineering technology.
Practice and application of urban bridge monitoring system.
1.Improve regulations and standards: In order to standardize and promote the construction and development of urban bridge monitoring systems, relevant regulations and standards should be issued to clarify the construction requirements, operation management, data sharing and other aspects of the system.
2.Cross-departmental collaboration: The construction and maintenance of bridge monitoring systems involve multiple departments, such as transportation, construction, municipal administration, etc. Cross-departmental communication and collaboration should be strengthened, and a joint force should be formed to jointly promote the construction and development of the system.
3.Technological innovation and R&D: Encourage scientific research institutions and enterprises to carry out technological innovation and product research and development, improve the accuracy and stability of monitoring equipment, reduce maintenance costs, and promote the continuous progress of urban bridge monitoring technology.
4.Data integration and sharing: Integrate the monitoring data of various bridges in the city, establish a data center, and realize the unified management and sharing of data. At the same time, open data interfaces to promote cooperation and communication with third-party institutions and researchers.
To sum up, as one of the important safeguard measures of the city's lifeline, the construction and application of the urban bridge monitoring system are of great significance to ensure urban safety and promote social development. By improving regulations and standards, strengthening cross-departmental collaboration, promoting technological innovation and research and development, and realizing data integration and sharing, we can effectively promote the construction and development of urban bridge monitoring systems and escort the prosperity and stability of cities.
