ANSHM Workshop on Proposing an ARC ITRH/ITTC for SHM - Flyer

Civil infrastructure such as buildings, bridges, dams and multi-purpose towers are built to last several decades. However, during their service lives, progressive deterioration and sudden damage can occur due to changes in load patterns, environmental effects and random events such as impacts. The retrofit and reconstruction of failed structures are costly for infrastructure owners. Structural health monitoring (SHM) offers economical, efficient and intelligent technologies to manage the operation and maintenance of infrastructure; thereby improving safety, increasing longevity and reducing maintenance. This workshop introduces an opportunity for academic-industry collaboration to form a Training Centre/Research Hub under the Australian Research Council (ARC) Industry Transformation Research Program (ITRP) to provide research and training to help vital Australian industries across infrastructure-rich sectors (e.g., transport, energy, utilities, mining) address challenges in SHM and enable commercial, resilience, sustainability, and social goals.
