Empirical Models for the Health Monitoring of High-Rise Buildings: The Case of Palazzo Lombardia

This paper deals with the monitoring of Palazzo Lombardia, one of the tallest skyscrapers in the city of Milan. The monitoring system collects both dynamic and static data in order to assess the health condition of the whole structure. Accelerometers are used for collecting dynamic data, while static data are obtained from clinometers. Moreover, environmental conditions are acquired by employing different further transducers.
