Buildings may be affected by various factors during their service life. Material quality and degradation, environmental conditions, load and stress, foundation issues, seismic activities, poor construction practices, chemical exposure, aging and fatigue, and biological factors are a few factors that may weaken the structural integrity of a building. Structural health monitoring (SHM) is a process that involves periodic and continuous monitoring of buildings using advanced monitoring systems. These systems collect real-time data. This data can be analyzed to detect issues early. At Resensys, we provide an extensive range of wireless building monitoring systems and products to monitor various parameters, including cracks, deflection, vibration, leak, inclination, and snow load monitoring.
