ShakeMonitor™

The Weir-Jones Group’s ShakeMonitor™ is a system that automatically computes the natural frequencies of structures and then analyses the real-time vibrational data to identify any anomalous responses, which may be caused by seismic or other significant disturbances. Using the original design drawings, a finite element model (FEM) of the structure is created and then used to produce a baseline model including a structural reliability study in order to identify responses outside normal modal shapes. Data is available in real-time and is stored for subsequent analysis. ShakeMonitor™ delivers reliable data autonomously on a continuous basis to monitor modal characteristics and key structural performance indicators.
