Abstract
Abstract The primary goal of Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is to assess performance and determine the physical state of the structures. Technological improvements and the ubiquitous accessibility of Wi-Fi networks have enhanced real-time SHM based on the Internet of Things (IoT). Extensive structural health evaluation can be conducted using real-time test data collected from various IoT sensors on civil infrastructures. These sensors monitor multiple structural health parameters, and the data is accessible via cloud-based storage platforms. This paper presents an overview of IoT technologies and provides an extensive literature review of IoT applications for civil infrastructures, highlighting associated challenges.
