HAZUS RSHD (HAZUS Rapid Structural Health Diagnostics) is an advanced system designed for Structural Health Monitoring (SHM), utilizing pALERT S303 series seismic instruments to measure structural vibration data. Through the application of the Ormsby wavelet filtering integration technique, it calculates inter-story displacement angles and combines them with AEBM’s Inter-Story Drift Ratio of Structural Damage State. HAZUS RSHD plays a crucial role by offering immediate safety references for residents and valuable assessment data for post-earthquake structural engineers, providing users with an extra level of safety assurance. Its ability to swiftly evaluate structural damages makes HAZUS RSHD an essential tool for earthquake response, recovery, and risk mitigation efforts, safeguarding lives and property with enhanced efficiency and accuracy.
Rapid structural health diagnostics after earthquakes (< 1 min)
Hybrid system combining P-wave-displacement (Pd) on-site earthquake early warning
Requiring only 3 accelerographs and 1 centralized computing datalogger for event data processing, uploading and alerting
4-phase LED indicators on local datalogger for showing damage levels with intuitive touch screen for real-time event display
Great supporting system to structural engineers for fast damages triage over HAZUS cloud service and SanDAS software before heading to sites
