Abstract

This work tries to fit structural health monitoring into the Internet of Things (IoT), the main topic of the research carried out in the context of the PON-DOMUS project [1]. The structural analysis has always used electrical and electronic methods for defining the deformation state of a structure. Examples are the displacement transducers, the strain gauges, the accelerometers. Here we have tried to coordinate and to connect the activities and the information of these sensors through the controls and the information transfer that allow the capabilities of IoT. The problems faced and solved by the other groups operating in the research project have also been transferred to the structural engineering part, thus allowing an on-line and real-time assessment of the structural health of the building and, therefore, an interaction with the subjects in charge maintenance or for the facilitation of the emergency management phases [2, 3].
