MONITORING OF COMPLEX DESIGN SYSTEMS OF SPECIAL STRUCTURES

Monitoring of special structures is more and more widely spread to estimate their state while in use. The forecast reliability is conditioned by a quality of the observation program, equipment and apparatuses, by means of processing and analysis of the observation results. For this purpose there was established a Site for testing PTL supports and tower structures. The Ukrainian Site is a unique universal test bed for static and dynamic tests of both separate constructions and a structure in whole with a continuous recording of time-dependent parameters and processing of the signals obtained, and for studying and collecting statistical information on weather changes and micrometeorological peculiarities of nature effects on a specific object. To solve these tasks, there was developed and approved a universal multi parameter information– measurement system. Within the Site there was developed and introduced an automated frost-wind weather-station intended for automatic measurement of the environment hydro-meteorological parameters. There was also established an 307 electronic-computing complex to perform full-scaled investigations of wind loads under real conditions of a surrounding housing
