Abstract :
[en] In the following, a new analytical method, the Deformation Area Difference (DAD) method for damage assessment of bridge structures is applied using experimental test results of a statically loaded beam. An essential prerequisite for the application of this method is a high precise measurement of the deflection line. In this paper, the results from a laboratory experiment using modern measurement techniques such as photogrammetry and displacement sensors are discussed. A reinforced concrete beam is stepwise loaded until reaching the ultimate limit state. The DAD-method is applied to the resulting data from the measurements and the outcome is discussed for further optimisation of the method. In principle, the measured deflection line of the beam contains already essential information on discontinuities which occur due to cracking. These entries are processed and visualised using the DAD-method. This study shows that a high accuracy of the measurement techniques in combination with the DAD-method can become an effective tool for damage detection.
