Solution details

This project belongs to the subject field that intersects civil architecture with sensors, Internet of Things, and artificial intelligence. It is the research and development and application of intelligent construction in the engineering field. This project continues to systematically carry out the research and development and engineering application of a general building structural health monitoring system for super high-rise buildings and large-span spatial structures. Specially developing structural health monitoring systems in major construction projects to carry out structural behavior monitoring and damage identification and early warning is a new pillar of modern structural engineering research and application. However, due to differences in test items, equipment selection, sensing principles, data protocols, evaluation methods, etc., previous health monitoring systems were developed one by one according to construction projects, and data between projects was not shared, incompatible, and did not have universal applicability. Relying on sensing technology, information technology, and artificial intelligence technology, this project has carried out more than 10 years of theoretical research, equipment testing, system development and engineering practice in interdisciplinary fields. It has broken through the problem of universal applicability of key technologies for building structural health monitoring and developed A universal building structural health monitoring system with independent intellectual property rights and fully domestically produced has reduced the overall cost by more than 50% compared with similar systems, forming a comprehensive research and development, manufacturing, installation, A large-scale building structural health monitoring industry that integrates assessment. The project results have been applied to more than 50 major projects in 22 regions in China, and have been successfully applied in overseas projects. The key innovation points of the project are as follows: 1. Universal monitoring system architecture based on the Internet of Things. The system architecture unifies the sensing equipment, data protocols, data management and retrieval methods of each monitoring sub-item, realizes seamless compatibility of sensing equipment, data collection, data storage and publishing, and provides multi-terminal access and display query means. 2. Project monitoring data shares the basic database. Based on the common monitoring system architecture, the project results have been successfully applied in many major engineering projects. The project monitoring data is shared and compatible, forming a basic database for health monitoring of super high-rise and large-span spatial structures. 3. A complete set of sensors and data acquisition products covering building structural performance monitoring. The product system has passed the testing and metrology certification of the national and Shanghai City metrology and testing authorities, and has applied for product patents and software copyrights. The entire series of products have formed large-scale production and achieved full system compatibility at the hardware level. 4. Efficient structural health monitoring data management solution. The management solution achieves high concurrency, low latency data storage and fast data retrieval. The data management software of the building structural health monitoring system is compatible with a full range of sensing and data acquisition equipment. It has excellent scalability and versatility. It has completed database deployment and established data sets and indexes. 5. Building structural health monitoring, evaluation and early warning software. Based on massive monitoring data, signal preprocessing, data cleaning, and multi-sensor data fusion are carried out to carry out multivariate modal identification and structural early warning under earthquakes, typhoons, temperature and long-term environmental effects on super high-rise buildings and long-span spatial structures. Structural behavior identification and damage assessment under online and offline conditions. Innovation achievements: Obtained 1 invention patent, 6 utility model patents, 23 software copyrights, editor-in-chief of 2 Shanghai City local standards, participated in the compilation of 1 industry association standards; published 25 academic papers. The acceptance opinions and level search conclusions show that the overall results of the project have reached the international advanced level, and some have reached the international leading level. Application and benefits: The project results have been adopted by national and Shanghai standards and have become a common technology in the industry; they have been directly applied to more than 50 national and local major projects, and have been successfully applied in overseas projects. In the past three years, the new output value has exceeded 53 million yuan, and the new profit has reached more than 18 million yuan. The large-scale, integrated and industrialized technology application transformation has been completed, technological progress has been promoted, and has significant social, economic and environmental benefits.
