Motorway Bridge Monitoring

TERNA SA – Motorway Bridge T4, Paradisia – Tsakona

The T4-Tsakona arch bridge will be the second largest in Greece, after the Rio-Antirrio bridge, and is considered as one the longest multi-span arch bridges worldwide.

The bridge reaches 400 meters in length and connects an area where a large landslide took place in 2003. It is a structure of extraordinary complexity, both in terms of foundation, as well as superstructure.

Set Point Technologies is installing a 100-channel distributed structural health monitoring system, consisting of acceleration sensors, strain gages, temperature sensors, load cells, tilt sensors and wind velocity and wind direction sensors.

Dam Monitoring

EYDAP SA – Mornos & Evinos Dams

Set Point Technologies, representative of Bartec Syscom in Greece, was awarded in 2015 the project for the installation of the Strong Motion Recorders networks of Mornos and Evinos dams in Central/Western Greece, as part of the emergency action plan of the project.

The lakes of Evinos and Mornos are the main water supply resources of the Athens Water Supply and Sewerage Company (EYDAP SA), which serves approximately 4,300,000 customers.

The monitoring project

The strong motion network of Evinos and Mornos dams consists of 5 and 3 instruments respectively. The measurement points on the dam are located on:

• Free field, downstream of the dam, to characterize the earthquakes and to measure the ground motion.
• In-structure, to measure the dam response at the locations with maximal modal deflections.
• Abutment, to measure the soil-structure interaction.
• Foundation, in a service gallery, to measure wave propagation in the dam foundation. The instrument at the dam foundation is present only in the Evinos dam.

Motorway Bridge Monitoring

EGNATIA ODOS SA – Motorway Bridge G4

The G4 bridge is a twin road bridge at section 1.1.2 of the Egnatia Motorway, with a total length of 188 m. The bridge comprises two piers with maximum pier height 75 m.

Mesovouni Bridge consists of two independent bridges with a total length of 258 m.

Set Point Technologies has installed on each bridge a seismic monitoring network consisting of six broad range force balance accelerometers, a high resolution strong motion accelerograph and GPRS communication, to monitor the bridge’s structural response to earthquakes and dynamic loads.

Railway Bridge Monitoring

AKTOR SA – Landslide Bridge

Landslide bridge is a steel arch railway bridge over a landslide for the connection of New Ikonio port to the rail network. With a total length of 272m is the longest one span (110 m) railway arch bridge in Greece.

Set Point Technologies has installed a network of In-Place Inclinometers and vibrating wire tilt sensors, to monitor the stability of the slope and of the structure.

In addition, Set Point Technologies carried out measurements by following the Ambient Vibration Method to determine the dynamic behavior of the bridge (eigenfrequencies, mode shapes and damping values) and to compare it with the theoretical finite element model.

Railway Bridge Monitoring

AKTOR SA – G5-Dafni Bridge

G5 is a concrete railway bridge over the Athens-Korinthos national road for the connection of New Ikonio port to the rail network. The bridge comprises two abutments and three piers with maximum pier height 28 m.
