DESCRIPTION:Structural Health Monitoring systems are growing in popularity
  in the world of bridge engineering due to their ability to provide real-t
 ime\, quantifiable data about bridges. Despite this\, visual inspection is
  still the most common form of condition monitoring used by bridge owners 
 worldwide. It is well known that uncertainties can arise from the inherent
 ly subjective nature of visual observations\, and it is important for lead
 ing asset owners\, such as Highways England\, to understand the potential 
 impacts which these uncertainties can have on management decisions.\n\nGra
 ham Webb is a Bridge Engineer with WSP where he has been involved with the
  design and assessment of a number of high profile structures across Londo
 n as well as projects covering asset management and standards development.
  Prior to joining WSP Graham completed a PhD thesis entitled “Structural
  Health Monitoring of Bridges” at the University of Cambridge Engineerin
 g Department. His research focused on ways in which data from monitoring s
 ystems can be interpreted to provide useful information to owners and mana
 gers of bridges.
