The paper presents the experimental modal analysis recently carried out on the historic iron bridge at Paderno d’Adda (1889). The dynamic tests were performed in operational conditions (i.e. under traffic and wind-induced excitation) between June and October 2009 and different output-only identification techniques were used to extract the modal parameters from ambient vibration data. The described tests represent the first experimental investigation carried out on the global characteristics of the bridge, since the load reception tests of 1889 and 1892.

Structural health monitoring (SHM) of civil engineering structures based on vibration data includes three main components: ambient vibration test, modal identification and model updating. This paper discussed these three components in detail and proposes a general framework of SHM for practical application. First, a fast Bayesian modal identification method based on Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) is introduced for efficiently extracting modal parameters together with the corresponding uncertainties from ambient vibration data. A recently developed Bayesian model updating method using Markov chain Monte Carlo simulation (MCMCS) is then discussed. To illustrate the performance of the proposed modal identification and model updating methods, a scale-down transmission tower is investigated. Ambient vibration test is conducted on the target structure to obtain modal parameters. By using the measured modal parameters, model updating is carried out. The MCMC-based Bayesian model updating method can efficiently evaluate the posterior marginal PDFs of the uncertain parameters without calculating high-dimension numerical integration, which provides posterior uncertainties for the target systems.
