IoT technologies for structural monitoring of infrastructures
Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is a key process to ensure the safety, efficiency, and durability of modern infrastructures such as bridges, viaducts, tunnels, and hydraulic works. Avacam develops smart IoT-based solutions using next-generation sensors capable of detecting deformations, vibrations, dynamic loads, and displacements in real time. These systems integrate accelerometers, inclinometers, strain gauges, humidity, temperature, and pressure sensors, installed directly on structures or in the surrounding ground, providing continuous and highly reliable data. The main goal is to prevent risks caused by seismic events, landslides, erosion, or extreme climate variations, thus reducing threats to infrastructure stability and public safety.
Advanced data analysis and predictive maintenance
Through low-power IoT communication networks (LoRaWAN, NB-IoT) and centralized digital platforms, collected data are processed with advanced artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms. This allows Avacam to detect anomalies, estimate the evolution of natural phenomena, and trigger automatic alarms in case of emergencies. SHM systems also enable optimized predictive maintenance, reducing intervention times and costs. This innovative approach not only enhances the safety and resilience of infrastructures but also represents a strategic asset for authorities, operators, and administrations committed to sustainable infrastructure management.
