Civil engineering structure daily monitored through IR Thermography and environmental measurement
Résumé
An integrated infrared measurement system synchronized with weather parameter measurements developed to make long term thermal monitoring of structural elements over a year is presented. The software and hardware architecture has been designed with the aim to be fully autonomous. Twin reinforced concrete beams, a damage one and a healthy one, are surveyed with this system. This study presents results obtained during the first six month of monitoring. Results obtained are detailed and discussed. A comparison with thermal measurements carried out inside the healthy beam is also proposed and discussed by comparison with external measurements.
