Integrated BIM-SHM techniques for the assessment of seismic damage

Nowadays, there is an increasing massive use of BIM technologies in the field of construction and civil engineering, both in the design phase and in the construction and management of the life cycle of the structure. This work aims to explore the possibility of integrating BIM technologies within the Structural Health Monitoring field. In particular, a framework has been developed to define in probabilistic terms through fragility curves the presence of damage after a seismic event and promptly visualize the damaged elements in a digital twin model and share the information with the various stakeholders. In particular, the effort has been placed in analyzing in detail the flow of data recorded from possible sensors placed on the building, passing through the post-processing and evaluation of the structural health of structural and non-structural elements up to the integration of this information in a BIM environment.
