Abstract. An intelligent monitoring procedure has been applied to static and dynamic field data collected from two innovative structural systems that have recently been constructed in the provinces of Manitoba and Nova Scotia, Canada. These structures incorporate innovative materials and systems and have been extensively instrumented with both fiber optic and electrical strain gauge sensors. Sensor data are remotely accessed and analysed, and performance indices appraising the structural health and performance of the structures are computed.
