Resensys Wireless Bridge Monitoring in NASA Kennedy Space Center

Resensys Wireless Gauges play a vital role in overseeing NASA’s movable bridges in Cape Canaveral, Florida. This state-of-the-art system includes advanced wireless sensors such as the strain gauge SenSpot, accelerometer SenSpot, and tiltmeter SenSpot. Together, they form

Resensys Wireless systems used to monitor I-40 over Mississippi River Bridge

On May 12, 2021 a crack found in the I-40 bridge connecting Arkansas and Tennessee.  This crack in a steel beam caused the bridge to be shut down immediately, resulting in traffic re-routing and massive efforts to

Steel Girder Bridge Case Study: Wireless Tilt (Bearing Rotation) and Wireless Strain Sensors on Steel Girder Bridge

Monitored Variables and Members: bearings rotation and strain in girders Bridge Structure:  the steel girder bridge over the river consists 14 piers and 2 abutments. The bridge longest span is about 160 feet, and it is fracture

Resensys Wireless Bridge Monitoring for Fracture Critical Bridges at 2016 Northeast Bridge Preservation Partnership (NEBPP – 2016)

In September 2016, Resensys wireless technology for monitoring fracture critical bridges was presented at the Northeast Bridge Preservation Partnership (NEBPP). NEBPP is comprised of representatives from regional state and local highway agencies, provincial transport agencies, industry, suppliers, consultants, and academia. A

Resensys Wireless SenSpot Sensors for Fracture Critical Bridges

Resensys wireless technology featured in Bridge Design & Engineering magazine in August 2016. Resensys technology offers easy-to-install wireless devices for long-term monitoring of fracture-critical bridges. It can monitor strain and temperature on girders, truss members, gusset plates,
