Abstract

After strong earthquakes, many steel structures were built with frame welded joints of welded construction and a welded base. Although steel structures are regarded as highly resistant to earthquakes, many were constructed using frame-welded joints of fillet welded construction and welded column bases. These weld joints can have a low capacity to absorb energy during earthquakes. Infrastructure built during the era of high economic growth in Japan is deteriorating. Furthermore, costs pose difficulties because mandatory checking is necessary once every five years. Structural health monitoring for infrastructure maintenance is widely anticipated as new technology. To put such a new sensor to practical use, it is necessary to accumulate measurement data and establish evaluation methods to derive information about the states of structures. As described herein, A development method for sensor measuring displacement is proposed using composite piezoelectric film and glass. Moreover, that is investigated the relationship between the structure displacement and the output voltage from the piezoelectric joint sensor to record the sensor characteristics. Structural analysis was also done to evaluate sensor characteristics and to assess the mechanisms and effects of environmental factors on the structure's response. On the other hand, conducted a similar experiment using a measurement robot and compared the sensor characteristics. Herein, results obtained using the measurement robot (SALLY) for the relation between the output and displacement of piezo compound sensors is explained. The mounting test of the piezo junction sensor used under the optimum conditions for the robot measurement confirmed that the target displacement measurement can be measured from the sensor output by changing the piezo-composite sensor plate thickness.
