Structural Health Monitoring/Evidence
Method evidence record

Structural Health Monitoring

Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is a process-based engineering methodology used in civil, mechanical, and aerospace engineering to continuously assess the condition of structures — bridges, buildings, dams, pipelines, and aircraft — through embedded or attached sensor networks. By acquiring real-time or periodic measurement data and applying signal processing and statistical pattern recognition, SHM aims to detect, locate, classify, and quantify damage before it reaches a critical state, enabling evidence-based maintenance decisions.
