Practical knowledge about structural monitoring

Sensors, safety thresholds, measurement interpretation and asset maintenance, written by a team that has built monitoring systems for 15 years.

Temperature compensation or a real structural change?

Correlation between a measurement and temperature is not enough to subtract temperature effects. See the procedure from raw data through the model and residual to engineering validation.

  • What temperature compensation really means
  • Three questions before the first regression
  • Procedure: raw data + temperature -> model -> residual -> validation
  • How to read the results without confusing correlation with cause
  • Illustrative example: a model that helps, but has no right to switch off vigilance
  • How to set alarms with compensation
  • Warning signs: when to suspend compensation
  • What this looks like in Inclify
