Abstract

Architectural structures today are increasingly complex and structural health monitoring plays an important role in guaranteeing their safety. How to improve the reliability of deformation analysis is, thus, one of the key problems. This article combines laser-based measurement technology and the Carrera unified formulation (CUF) method to investigate the deformation of engineering structures. Within this article, we simulate architectural structures using the CUF geometric model, which is consistent with the results of the laser tracker experiment. We aimed at constructing an intelligent and efficient CUF model which can be applied extensively in the monitoring of various constructs, such as tunnels and bridges. The innovation of this article is that high-accuracy laser tracker technology is integrated with an effective CUF model to investigate the load-displacement relationship considering lateral displacement.
