Sinan Acikgoz: Discrete and distributed monitoring of Victorian masonry vaults during London Bridge Station Redevelopment 2
The photograph describes the use of two optical technologies for monitoring brick masonry vaults during the redevelopment of London Bridge Station. The monitoring of the movement of these structures during construction is critical for the active train platforms and underground tunnels below. While the automatic total station tracks the position of a few targets attached to the structure slowly, laser scanners gather millions of data points of millimetric accuracy within a matter of minutes. The point cloud data provides precise information on structural geometry and movements. New sensing technologies provide unprecedented opportunities to observe structural response and improve our understanding of structural performance.
NOTE: Some photographic effects were applied to the photograph.
