Structural measurements on infrastructure can ensure future safety and avert potential disasters.

Buildings, bridges, and dams are large stationary structures that are equally as important as vehicles and manufacturing equipment when it comes to understanding the dynamics of a structure. We may not immediately think of such large stationary structures or infrastructure as ever having any movement. However, when movement occurs for various reasons, including earthquakes or vehicles passing over a bridge, we find the consequences can be disastrous if structural engineers did not consider the structural dynamics of the structure upfront during the construction process.
