SHM of the Bosphorus Bridges

Permanent BRIMOS® condition monitoring for two of the world's most famous suspension bridges, which span the Bosphorus and connect the continents of Europe and Asia.

The July 15 Martyrs Bridge (BB1) and the Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge (FSM) are among the most famous suspension bridges in the world. They span the Bosphorus and connect the continents of Europe and Asia.

To ensure the long-term safety, reliability, and service life of these key structures, IHI Infrastructure Systems Co., Ltd. commissioned the implementation of a comprehensive structural monitoring system for KGM.

The installed BRIMOS® permanent monitoring system recorded structural behavior through precise sensors, documented changes, and identified potential damage and risks at an early stage. The installations formed the basis for continuous condition monitoring of these important structures.

In this way, the project made an important contribution to sustainable bridge monitoring and to securing the transport infrastructure for millions of daily users.

Working between Europe and Asia, with the Bosphorus beneath you – that is a view you never forget. And a task you carry out with the utmost care.
