Challenge
Monitor seismic activity and structural integrity of an aging dam, ensuring early detection of anomalies to safeguard water supply and public safety.
Solution
The installed 12-channel RTR system included:
- 9 channels of acceleration to measure dynamic seismic and structural responses.
- 2 channels for displacement monitoring of existing cracks (later stabilized through repair works).
- Automatic SMS and e-mail notifications for rapid alerts.
- Automatic visualization of recorded events for operators.
- Chronological search of all seismic events via a web server for long-term records and analysis.
Outcomes
The system provided dam operators with real-time awareness of seismic and structural behavior. Continuous monitoring supported repair and stabilization of critical cracks, improved preparedness for seismic events, and ensured ongoing protection of Skopje’s primary water resource. By addressing both structural safety and public utility resilience, the project reinforced confidence in the dam’s continued operation.
