Bridge & Large Structure Health Monitoring
Track strain, temperature, deformation and dynamic response across long-span structures where isolated point measurements leave gaps.
- Strain
- Temperature
- Deformation
Monitoring solutions
Fiber-optic monitoring, engineered around the asset.
From bridges and tunnels to pipelines and power corridors, each sensing architecture begins with the behavior that must be observed—not with a preselected instrument.
Explore monitoring contextsStart with the engineering problem
The same sensor does not solve every monitoring problem.
A useful system definition begins with four practical questions:
- 01Which asset behavior needs to be observed?
- 02Where must the measurement be spatially resolved?
- 03How fast does the relevant change occur?
- 04What information must reach the operator?
Monitoring contexts
One sensing foundation, configured for different assets.
The measurement chain changes with the structure, environment, distance and required response—not simply with the industry name.
Dam, Slope & Geohazard Monitoring
Observe slow deformation, seepage-related response and localized structural change over the long service life of dams, slopes and embankments.
- Deformation
- Seepage response
- Vibration
Underground & Deep Excavation Monitoring
Build continuous profiles of settlement, structural strain and load transfer along tunnels, retaining structures and deep foundations.
- Settlement
- Axial force
- Strain
Oil, Gas & Energy Asset Monitoring
Use passive optical sensing along pipelines, wells and process assets where distance, electromagnetic immunity and environmental resilience matter.
- Temperature
- Acoustic
- Pressure
Power Cable & Utility Corridor Monitoring
Follow thermal loading and external disturbance along power cables and utility corridors with one spatially referenced sensing line.
- Temperature
- Disturbance
- Partial discharge
Smart Transportation & Road/Rail Monitoring
Capture dynamic strain, vibration and temperature along railways, road structures and transport corridors as events move through the asset.
- Dynamic strain
- Vibration
- Temperature
Industrial Equipment & Manufacturing Monitoring
Relate vibration, acoustic and thermal behavior to operating condition across machinery, conveyors and controlled manufacturing processes.
- Acoustic
- Vibration
- Temperature
Research & Custom Fiber Sensing Systems
Configure sensing arrays, interrogation and data outputs around experiments that do not fit a fixed commercial measurement architecture.
- Custom arrays
- Multi-parameter
- OEM integration
Engineering evidence
A monitoring solution is a complete sensing chain.
Reliable field data depends on how the sensing element, cable structure, interrogator, installation method and data processing work together. We develop and validate these interfaces as one system.
- 01Define the measurand and spatial coverage
- 02Match the fiber and cable to the environment
- 03Configure interrogation and data output
- 04Validate the full chain before deployment
From requirement to field data
Four decisions connect the asset to a usable measurement.
01Understand the assetLoads, environment and failure modes
02Define the measurementsQuantity, range, spacing and speed
03Build the sensing chainFiber, cable, interrogation and software
04Validate in contextInstallation, baseline and data quality
