Railway infrastructure maintenance is essential in implementing the transportation system. Most of these railway bridges have suffered gradual deterioration over time. Predictive structural health monitoring (SHM) is required by installing instrumentation sensors on railway bridges to determine the condition of the railway bridge infrastructure at the site. This research aims to analyze and assess the existing condition of steel railway bridges to understand the load-deformation characteristics, bearing capacity, and dynamic response of the structure. This paper describes a valuable method for assessing the condition of steel railway bridges during operation. This paper presents a direct analysis of the steel railway bridge structure, with a span of 40.00 meters, a width of 4.40 meters, and a height of 6.60 meters. The steel structure railway bridge is modeled in 3D in detail, and numerical analysis is carried out using finite element analysis based on input parameters obtained from manual field measurements and instrumentation sensors. The expected result of the development of this SHM System is to know the performance of the steel railway bridge structure in real-time via the dashboard display. The results showed that the carrying capacity of the railway bridge was in a relatively safe condition. This case study may help practice engineers and researchers in future research. It can be a valuable reference for future research in developing and applying such a system to a typical case.

In the transportation network, railway bridges are crucial for the transfer of both passengers and commodities. Railway bridges require continuous monitoring to observe their performance. A structural health monitoring system is one method for assessing the viability of a railway bridge structure. The functioning of railroad bridge structures has been extensively observed using wireless technology. This research aims to implement smart wireless sensors for monitoring the structural health of the railway bridge online in real-time during operation. Many sensor kinds were installed on the railway bridge, including strain gauges, accelerometers, linear variable displacement transducers, and proximity sensors. Geometric modeling and numerical simulation were performed to find critical frame locations on the railway bridge where the instrumentation sensors would be placed. In this study, MONITA® is employed for data acquisition modules. The MONITA® system consists of a combination of hardware and software that functions to retrieve, send, store, and process data. This paper describes the result of the establishment of this method to comprehend the performance of the steel railway bridge structure in real-time via the human-machine interface display dashboard. As a result, the monitoring system can appropriately be used to assess a structural railway bridge in real-time. This study may be helpful to practicing engineers and researchers in future studies of steel railway bridge evaluation. This could be a useful reference for future studies in implementing such systems as the railway bridge early warning system technique in detecting bridge damage.

“…Construction or structural defects may cause an infrastructure failure due to working dynamic loadings. Therefore, the reliability and durability of steel structure railway bridges regularly have to be monitored [8]. The loading combinations of the dynamic moving load and the static load result in additional vertical deformation of the rail structure.…”

Most old steel structure railway bridges in Indonesia have deteriorated throughout their service life since they were constructed almost a century ago. However, those bridges' performance must be maintained to have essential safety issues and live extension of the railway bridge structure. Therefore, inspecting and evaluating those steel railway bridges is necessary to maintain the service requirement. Vertical deformation of the steel railway bridge caused by dynamic loadings needs to be observed. The objective of the study is to assess the old steel railway bridge by evaluating the strength characteristics of the structures against the working forces, particularly the moving, wind, and seismic loads. In order to understand the phenomena impacted by the dynamic loadings, the steel structure railway bridge was instrumented using deformation sensors, strain gages, accelerometers, and passive infrared. The steel railway bridge was analyzed using a 3D finite element model. This study discussed the influence of dynamic loadings on the steel structure railway bridge. This paper elaborates and provides suggestions to solve problems and recommended action in practice for future study. This paper may be useful for researchers and practicing engineers.
