| Abstract: |
This paper presents three different case studies of continuous dynamic monitoring of lively footbridges, aiming at the verification of vibration serviceability limits defined by recent footbridge guidelines for vertical and lateral human induced vibrations, as well as the demonstration of the feasibility of vibration based damage detection, taking into account the experience gained at the Laboratory of Vibrations and Structural Monitoring (ViBest, www.fe.up.pt/vibest) of FEUP with the development of different research and consultancy works. |
