Samenvatting

The study deals with the development of a fully bio-based composite pedestrian bridge with sensor technology embedded to measure its long term behavior. The bridge was produced in different parts using vacuum infusion and was assembled afterwards. Optical fiber sensor lines with 7 equally spaced FBGs were embedded one in the top laminate and two in the bottom laminate during production. Consequently, the sensors have been compared with LVDT readings. During a lab reference measurement a linear trend with increasing load was seen for both techniques. The field tests afterwards shows the potential of the sensor network to in-situ measure the dynamic behavior e.g. damping and 1st eigenfrequency of the bridge and its long term static behavior e.g. creep effects.
