Dynamic Characterization of a Two-Span Pedestrian Bridge
At Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan (KTH) in Sweden, a project with Strusoft and Dewesoft analyzed a two-span pedestrian bridge to enhance student learning. Using advanced monitoring tools like accelerometers, the project assessed the bridge's response to environmental and operational conditions, aiding in finite element model tuning and proactive maintenance. This initiative also supports the creation of an open-source bridge database for further research and education.
