Cloud-Based SHM Platforms for Real-Time Structural Insight
Smart, scalable platforms delivering 24/7 structural health data via secure cloud access for infrastructure safety and performance.
Cloud-Enabled SHM Solutions for Safer, Smarter Infrastructure
Cloud-based Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) platforms revolutionize how structural integrity is assessed and maintained by enabling real-time, remote access to sensor data and analytics. These platforms collect, store, and analyze data from various sensors deployed on infrastructure like bridges, buildings, pipelines, and towers—allowing engineers and facility managers to identify early signs of deterioration, stress, or failure.
STRUCTURAL TESTING TOOLS delivers scalable, precise, and durable Structural Health Monitoring platforms that provide accurate, real-time data, secure remote access, and seamless workflow integration for complex infrastructure projects.
With continuous innovation, robust support, and a customer-first approach, we empower organizations to gain actionable insights, reduce operational risks, and optimize asset performance.

Case Studies
Bridge Network in Ohio
STRUCTURAL TESTING TOOLS deployed a cloud-based SHM system across several bridges managed by a state DOT. Using vibration and tilt sensors connected to GAO RFID gateways, real-time alerts were configured for unusual structural movements. Engineers accessed the dashboard remotely, saving inspection time and prioritizing maintenance effectively.
Commercial High-Rise, California
A high-rise under construction in Los Angeles used our cloud SHM platform to monitor settlement and wind sway. Integrated with GAO Tek tilt meters and strain sensors, the platform delivered daily reports to the engineering team, helping them adjust temporary supports and optimize scheduling.
Hydroelectric Dam in British Columbia
To ensure compliance with safety standards, a major hydro utility installed STRUCTURAL TESTING TOOLS’ cloud-enabled monitoring system using GAO Tek vibration and displacement sensors. Real-time monitoring helped reduce manual inspection frequency and ensured early detection of dam wall shifts.
