Global Perspectives on Structural Monitoring in Civil Engineering
- Structural Monitoring (SM) is crucial in civil engineering for ensuring the safety, functionality, and longevity of civil infrastructure, especially bridges. As its importance grows, SM practices are guided mainly by national standards, leading to fragmented approaches and limited global integration. This paper examines SM guidelines, focusing on contributions from Germany, while exploring the broader international framework.
In Germany, key guidelines such as the DGZfP Merkblatt B09 and others offer structured methods and practice examples for long-term monitoring and performance assessment. Internationally, countries have developed their own SM frameworks. Amongst others, Austria’s RVS Richtlinie 13.03.01, France’s COFREND Livre Blanc, Canada’s ISIS Guidelines, the ACI Report 444.2-21 from the USA, the TRB Circular E-C246 and the CIRIA Guideline from the UK contribute to a global understanding of SM. These guidelines address common technical, theoretical, and economic challengesStructural Monitoring (SM) is crucial in civil engineering for ensuring the safety, functionality, and longevity of civil infrastructure, especially bridges.

These guidelines address common technical, theoretical, and economic challenges across regions.
This paper highlights the need for international collaboration, identifying synergies and gaps to promote a unified approach to SM. It offers insights into global standards and how successful strategies can foster innovation and cohesion in SM practices worldwide.…
