Abstract :
The assessment of seismic harm is today just about solely focused around visual examination, as building managers are for the most part hesitant to introduce perpetual sensing frameworks, because of their high establishment, administration and upkeep costs. To defeat this impediment, in this paper we introduce little size sensing nodes for estimation of strain and acceleration, coordinating Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) based sensors. The sensors transmit data wirelessly to a remote acquisition unit where data are stored, processed and interpreted using the developed software. This software consists of a damage assessment module and a decision support module, providing respectively an estimation of the level of damage inside the building and an insight of the rehabilitation methodologies and cost. To decrease the effect of establishment and administration, information will be transmitted to a remote base station utilizing a remote interface. The paper plots the gadget working standards, generation plan and working at both unit and network levels. The paper evaluates the temperate maintainability and execution of the sensors created and discusses about their relevance to long haul seismic checking.
