Data analysis to monitor the level of safety of buildings over time
Useful information over time. This is what we need to detect in order to verify the behavior of a large structure or building. We need to understand whether the situation is changing or has changed with respect to certain benchmarks. After a heavy snowfall, for example, or an earthquake. Or due to normal deterioration due to time.
To monitor buildings and large structures, it is therefore necessary to apply Internet of Things (IoT) systems that in addition to collecting data are able to process them and alert us in real time, through an App, if the structure is no longer in its optimal condition, allowing us to intervene.
The sensors used are reliable, easy to install, communicate with a control unit through a wireless interface and have low costs and low energy consumption.
In the case of large surfaces, such as structures for covering public spaces, made of glass or other heavy materials, unexpected risk conditions may occur, for example a heavy snowfall with the formation of ice sheets, as for example in the adjacent photo. By monitoring structure coverage and roof, the sensors can determine the extent of the risk in real time and report if the warning threshold is exceeded, before it becomes a real alarm.
