IoTBridge installation at Västerbron

The IoTBridge team, a subsidiary of CNet, is now monitoring Västerbron, one of Stockholms main bridges. Inaugurated 1935 the bridge has an overall length of 600m, of which 340m stretch over water. About 50.000 vehicles pass this bridge per day, making it an integral part of Stockholms infrastructure.

The team has installed sensors for monitoring the health status of Västerbron. Acceleromters and strain gauges will continuously measure vibrations, stress and strains on the bridge. Raw data is sent to IoTBridge Cloud where it is transformed and synchronized with a digital twin of the bridge. Machine learning and advanced mathematical algorithms are applied to assess the structural health of the bridge. The ongoing monitoring and the analytical results are visualized in an easy-to-use app.
