A system for continuously monitoring tensioned reinforcements in a structure (10), such as for example bridges or modem buildings, has a plurality of detectors (D1, D2, D3) randomly and conveniently positioned about the structure (10). The detectors (D1, D2, D3) an responsive to acoustic or seismic energy emissions to produce a signal. The signals associated with reinforcement failure are analyzed (14) to locate the site of reinforcement failure. The system is simple and yet highly sensitive when compared to previously known monitoring systems.
L'invention concerne un système permettant de contrôler de façon permanente les tensions d'armature dans une structure (10), telle que des ponts ou des bâtiments modernes, ledit système comportant une pluralité de détecteurs (D1, D2, D3) placés au hasard mais de façon efficace autour de la structure (10). Les détecteurs (D1, D2, D3) répondent à des émissions d'énergie sismique ou acoustique en produisant un signal. Les signaux associés à une faiblese des armatures sont analysés (14) de manière à localiser le site de la faiblesse d'armature. Le système est simple tout en étant hautement sensible par rapport aux systèmes de contrôle connus jusqu'ici.
