How it works

Sense

Strain, displacement, rotation, acceleration, vibration, temperature, pressure, water level, collision events, and other project-specific structural variables.

Connect

BDI acquisition equipment supports IEEE 802.11 Wi-Fi and wired Ethernet, with data pushed to local or hosted systems according to project design.

Analyze

Software converts sensor signals into engineering units, tracks trends and thresholds, and supports structural-response and fatigue analysis.

Act

The system issues configured warnings, supports inspections and maintenance decisions, and provides reports or engineering recommendations.

Why teams choose it

Customized monitoring design

Multi-parameter structural sensing

Rugged field acquisition

Real-time data access

About BDI Structural Health Monitoring and Alerting

BDI designs and installs structural-health monitoring systems around a structure's measurement requirements. Sensors and data-acquisition hardware capture responses such as strain, displacement, rotation and vibration.

Applications include bridges, hydraulic structures, bearings and joints, cables and fatigue-prone components. Data is processed into engineering units and made available through a website for storage, visualisation and review. Systems can include collision-event detection, alerts and project-specific reports, with BDI providing installation, maintenance and engineering interpretation.

Questions and answers

Q: Are installations standard or customised?

A: BDI designs the monitoring system around the structure and project requirements.

Q: Which measurements are supported?

A: Examples include strain, displacement, rotation and vibration.

Q: How are results accessed?

A: Through online data management, visualisation and reports.

Q: Can collision events generate alerts?

A: The page describes configurations that send event information and images after a bridge strike or impact.

What does a deployment cost?

For 1 site with 10 monitored assets in United States, IoT Apps estimates $1,400 – $4,700 in the first year and $300 – $1,000 every year after. This is an estimate based on comparable deployments, not a quote from BDI (Bridge Diagnostics).
