Definition

A structural health monitoring system links structural questions to sensors, DAQ, communications, software, thresholds, and engineering review.

Engineering Problem Statement

Owners need evidence for movement, vibration, strain, or event response, but raw measurements must be tied to engineering interpretation.

System Architecture

  1. Sensor plan by measurement type
  2. Data acquisition and timing
  3. Power and telemetry
  4. Analytics, dashboard, and reporting
  5. Maintenance and calibration plan

How Products Work Together

QuakeLogic solution architectures should be specified as complete systems: sensors generate measurements, acquisition hardware synchronizes and stores data, communications move data to reviewers, software supports dashboards and reports, and documentation supports procurement, commissioning, and maintenance.

Selection Guidance

  • Define the structural behavior first
  • Use multi-sensor architectures for complex assets
  • Require baseline data and reporting responsibilities

Standards and Documentation

Use project specifications, source datasheets, calibration records, drawings, manuals, and the standards library to confirm final requirements. This architecture page provides engineering guidance, not a compliance certificate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which sensor should I choose?

Choose by measured quantity, range, frequency, accuracy, installation environment, calibration needs, and data use case.

What data acquisition hardware is required?

Confirm sensor signal type, channel count, sampling rate, timing, local storage, telemetry, power, and software compatibility.

Which communication method is appropriate?

Use wired links for controlled short runs, wireless or cellular for remote sites, and local storage where communications are unavailable or not required in real time.
