Strengthening Mobility and Revolutionizing Transportation (SMART) Program
Abstract:

The West Virginia Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) Project, funded by the FY 2022 Strengthening Mobility and Revolutionizing Transportation (SMART) Grant, aims to address the state's critical infrastructure challenges, particularly its high percentage of structurally deficient bridges. The project focuses on implementing advanced SHM technology to enhance West Virginia's bridge network’s safety, reliability, and efficiency. The primary goal of the SHM Project is to maintain the resiliency of West Virginia's bridge infrastructure by promptly identifying and addressing critical needs. The objective is to leverage real-time data collection to prioritize repairs and maintenance, ensuring the state's bridges remain safe and functional despite aging structures and unforeseen incidents. The project is centered on the East Huntington/Gunner Gatski Bridge, a cable-stay bridge that spans the Ohio River, providing a vital link between Huntington, WV, and Proctorville, OH. This bridge supports over 14,000 vehicles daily and plays a significant role in the regional economy, particularly for marine ports and terminals that handle millions of tons of cargo annually.
