DIGITEXX CEO, MARK SERECI, WAS RECENTLY INTERVIEWED AND FEATURED IN AN ARTICLE IN STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING & DESIGN TALKING ABOUT STRUCTURAL HEALTH MONITORING FOR BRIDGES.
Mark Sereci recently worked with Structural Engineering & Design who developed an article for their Bridge Design section. Article author, Pamela Accetta Smith, featured industry experts discussing the progression of Structual Health Monitoring for bridges.
One of Mr. Sereci's quotes included,
"Domestically, the demand for SHM of bridges is starting to rise. However, there are still a lot of questions and schools of thought. On one side of the country, seismic activity is calling for a global approach to monitoring and measuring the overall performance of the bridge through a predominant use of accelerometers. On the other side of the country, more challenge and focus is around aging infrastructure, hence more use of strain gages. Both schools of thought are correct, so there is need for a system that can adjust to the demands of the region, bridge type, and potential structural challenges.”
