ABSTRACT
This paper introduces an approach to the realization of an ICT-based bridge remote monitoring system which enables real-time monitoring and control for unexpected heavy loads such as big earthquake and strong typhoon. In this paper, it is described not only an integrated bridge remote monitoring system called the “Intelligent Bridge” consists of a stand-alone monitoring system (SMS) and a web-based internet monitoring system (IMS) for bridge maintenance but also its application to intelligent bridge system as an intelligent structure. For the purpose of verifying its validity to actual bridge structure, an attempt is made to study the possibility of controlling the actual structural performance by adjusting the cable forces on a 2-span continuous cable-stayed bridge model.
