‘The Value of Structural Health Monitoring for the reliable Bridge Management’
At the beginning of March 2017 an interesting workshop took place at the Faculty of Civil
Engineering of the University of Zagreb. The Workshop was organised by two European
cooperation and networking projects under auspices of the COST framework and the Working
Commission 1 of IABSE.
The workshop gathered 120 participants from 40 countries and was organised through three main
sessions:
-
Performance assessment of existing Bridges for their reliable management;
-
Framework, Strategies and Tools towards the Quantification of the Value of SHM;
-
Management and Performance-assessment of Existing Structures
The workshop in Zagreb gathered 120 participants from 40 countries with different professional background
- Four important keynote lecturers were sharing their knowledge on assessment, monitoring and life
cycle management of bridges:
-
Dan M. Frangopol from the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the
Lehigh University in USA lectured on Risk-, Resilience- and Sustainability-Informed Decision
Making for Bridges in a Life-Cycle Multi-Objective Optimization Context;
-
James L. Beck from the Dept. of Computing & Mathematical Sciences at the California
Institute of Technology in USA introduced participants to Bayesian uncertainty
quantification and sparse Bayesian learning for model updating in SHM;
-
Ho-Kyung Kim from the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the Seoul
National University in South Korea shared the experience in What We Have Learned from
Operational Monitoring and Serviceability Assessment of Long-Span Bridges and
Hitoshi Furuta from the Faculty of Informatics at the Kansai University in Japan gave an
overview of New Technologies for Condition Assessment of Existing Structures.

Keynote presenters from Lehigh University in USA – Frangopol; from California Institute of Technology in USA – Beck;
from Seoul National University in South Korea – Kim and from Kansai University in Japan – Furuta, shared their
knowledge as external advisors
