SHM

Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is a method used to detect and assess damage in structures, ensuring their safety and reliability. SHM is widely applied in civil engineering for structures such as bridges, tunnels, and buildings. By using sensors and data analysis, SHM systems can detect changes in a structure's behavior and provide early warnings of potential issues. SHM is often included in the design of new investments, but it can also be retrofitted to existing structures.

co.brick observe is a versatile platform for SHM applications. By connecting sensors to co.brick observe, engineers can continuously monitor the structural health of buildings and infrastructure. This enables early detection of anomalies and potential issues, preventing costly repairs and ensuring structural safety.

co.brick observe can be applied to a wide range of SHM use cases with varying requirements and constraints, including:

• Distant locations with limited connectivity and power supply (LoRaWAN)
• High-latency environments (GSM)
• High data rates (LTE)

co.brick observe can be integrated with different protocols and support data processing requirements based on the use case.
