INTRODUCTION
 Bridges play a crucial role in our transportation
infrastructure, providing safe and efficient passage
for drivers and commuters.
 However, over time, bridges can deteriorate due to
various factors such as aging, environmental
conditions, and heavy traffic loads.
 To ensure the safety and durability of bridges,
structural health monitoring (SHM) has emerged as
a vital tool.
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
• This proposed study aims to address the
challenge of bridge degradation over time by
evaluating various monitoring techniques for
assessing structural health."
1. How does structural health monitoring
contribute to the safety and durability of
bridges?
