Scientists from the Perm Federal Research Center of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences have developed innovative equipment for monitoring the condition of buildings and engineering structures, capable of operating stably in the extreme climatic conditions of the Arctic. The new system features high measurement accuracy and affordable cost.
The development underwent testing in the climatic chamber of the Institute of Continuous Media Mechanics of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and in early October it was tested at a pilot facility in Yakutia — a five-story administrative building with a reinforced concrete frame on a pile foundation. The team of Perm researchers will monitor the operation of the experimental complex and collect data on the condition of the structure in real time.
According to Georgy Gusev, Head of the Intelligent Monitoring Laboratory of IMSS UB RAS, the system is a hardware and software complex that records the slightest deformations and changes in the structure. The equipment is capable of operating for years at extremely low temperatures, without requiring serious maintenance. Data exchange is carried out around the clock — both via a local network and via the Internet.
The system includes sensors adapted to Arctic conditions: inclinometers, thermometers, humidity sensors, dew point sensors, and relative settlement measurements. Thanks to this, the complex is capable not only of detecting dangerous changes in building structures, but also of predicting possible accidents caused by man-made or natural factors.
