This project aims to develop a framework for evaluating the benefits of scour monitoring for early warning and risk management of bridges, and to identify optimal measurement techniques. For this purpose, after reviewing the technologies available for monitoring scour, a framework will be proposed to evaluate the benefits deriving from the information gathered from different types of sensors for updating the scour knowledge. A methodology will also be developed to rationally compare the effectiveness of alternative scour measurement techniques.
All the latest from the project can be found in their latest report.
