Wireless Strain Sensor Archive

Wireless sensors have transformed how we monitor the health of infrastructure, especially in measuring strain. Traditional strain measurement methods often involve wired sensors, which can be complex and prone to maintenance issues. Wireless technology offers numerous advantages

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 solution for the Hernando de Soto Bridge (Carrying INTERSTATE 40 (I-40) over the Mississippi river in west Memphis and Arkansas) during critical repairs has been highlighted in October 2022 issue of “Roads and Bridges” Magazine.

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

When it comes to SUSTAINABILITY, often small wins BIG. What are some drivers of sustainability?  Smaller environmental impact? Less or better use of resources (including re-use or recycling)? Implementation of sustainable systems – ones that are in

Check out the ARTBA 2021 Bridge Report Which shows that 220,000 US bridges need repair. The National Bridge Inspection Program (NBIS) sets inspection intervals for bridges according to certain criteria, and classifies bridge inspections into 5 types:

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

The transport of extreme loads or “superloads” (deemed anything greater than 200 tonnes) on large convoys is often necessary in Victoria, Australia. Considerable planning and assessment are undertaken by the state’s Department of Transport (colloquially known as

Resensy’s wireless strain sensors (Strain SenSpot) and wireless tilt sensors (Tilt SenSpot) were used to monitor another fracture critical bridge in Maryland. The structural health monitoring based on Resensys SenSpot sensors system was deployed on bridge US522

On November 21st 2016, a Resensys structural health monitoring system was deployed on SR-16 Clay County Culvert. The system consists of 4 high rate strain SenSpot sensors and one SeniMax data logger and remote communication gateways.
