Longer spans are more sensitive to loading (wnd, seismic vibration, traffic), monitoring the loading and observing the structure's response has become an essential condition indicator. Also several older cable-stayed structures are showing sign of damage, often caused by wind-induced vibrations and corrosion. Inspection and monitoring can provide confidence in structural integrity and enable ea…
New proprietary monitoring and inspection technologies have been introduced that have provided bridge owners and engineers with better information about the condition and rate of rate of deterioration of these critical structural components. The paper provides an overview of current cable inspection practices. It traces the evolution of the new technologies, present case studies, and discusses …
