A field data-acquisition system capable to acquire measurands of interest in a load testing was acquired as part of a previous research equipment project. This project intends to validate and calibrate such equipment by conducting an in-situ load test. The calibration of the equipment will be conducted in a laboratory environment first and its validation in the field will follow. The structure chosen for such validation is the structural floor of the speed ramp in a parking garage, Buffalo, NY. The aim of the load test is to assess the structural performance of a typical cantilever portion of the floor system. Such validation will ensure that the in-house built data acquisition system is capable to perform as planned during the test and therefore to guarantee the safety of a load test. |
