Sensor Monitoring system, continuous recording of deflections, Surveying: focus on means implemented by SITES during a load test. SITES assignment was to check the behaviour of this 171m length prestressed concrete throughout a load test. After reinforcement works, the bridge has been load-tested in order to assess the additional prestressing impact, and to verify that…
Watch the video to find out the HD Mapping possibilities for structural monitoring. This is an example of HD mapping possibilities performed on a periodical basis for structure monitoring. It enables to overlay to the nearest pixel of both digital twins for an accurate monitoring and new defects identifications. But also, for instance, perform preparation…
On behalf of SOCOPRIM, SITES performed the initial in-depth inspection of a series of civil engineering structures in Côte d’Ivoire.
