1 Introduction to Structural Health Monitoring Systems of The Shanghai Tower Haibei Xiong, Qilin Zhang, Weixing Shi,Airon Chen Tongji University 20 th Aug., 2013

2 OUTLINE Background Short Introduction to The Shanghai Tower Structural Health Monitoring Systems Accelerations Horizontal Displacement Wind Pressure and Wind Environment Stress and Strain Data Acquisition and Analysis System

3 1. BACKGROUND More and more super high-rise buildings are designed and constructed to challenge the limitation of human ambitious, and this skyscrapers become the landmarks of a cities or a regions. 600m In China 500m

4 1. BACKGROUND But, how about a super-high rise building s performances? Does it perform according to original design? If it has some defects, what will happen? And What we can do? Monitoring on structural responses is an efficient way to help us to understand the structural performance and then control the development Now, It is also a modern solution for seismic mitigation.

5 1. BACKGROUND Daniel BALAGEAS, Structural Health Monitoring
