Abstract

The permanent monitoring of structural behavior of monuments is a crucial target in the framework of cultural heritage preservation. The paper deals with the monitoring and static risk assessment using the technique of dynamic parameter measurement in a broad Wireless Sensors Network (WSN) system. The historical buildings exposed to the traffic vibration, which can induce stresses inside the material, as well as small seismic actions, are vulnerable. Then a permanent monitoring of the micro-shocks/vibrations is suggested to be applied to the most vulnerable monuments. The use of a WSN requires to provide a robust infrastructure to support the data collecting and decision making before, during, and after a crisis event. When a crisis occurs, through the use of such information collection methods an appropriate plan is dynamically instantiated with the specific details of the crisis.
