Description
An increasing number of buildings require informed decisions to be made about their continued safety and serviceability. Although social and economic issues are often all-important influences, the technical factors nevertheless need to be addressed objectively, efficiently and reliably. The aim of this book is to bring together those techniques which can be used effectively to monitor building structures. Emphasis is given to reliability, practicality, cost-effectiveness and the use of relevant examples.;Written primarily for practising engineers responsible for the assessment of safety and serviceability, and for the client specifying a brief for an assessment or evaluating a report, this book should also serve as a source of reference for those in research involving monitoring, and as an aid to the student requiring a better understanding of the full-scale performance of building structures.
