STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY SYSTEMS

The original plans are referenced to determine the best location for the Structural Integrity System. Powered by batteries and solar energy, the device uses strain gauges placed at strategic locations on the structure to monitor its linear deviations (or strain). After the Structural Integrity System is installed, the structure is tested with a known load. Using the test data and the mathematical analysis, parameters for a baseline of structural activity are established... Occupying less than a cubic foot of space, the Structural Integrity System receives varying current from the strain gauges every eleven seconds and relays it to a controller/computer. The analog data is then amplified and the deviations are changed to digital data. The computer then stores the highest 250 loads along with the frequency, time, date, battery voltage and temperature. The data may be accessed at any time by remote transceiver. Reports will be prepared at periodic intervals from data received at the..
