Case Study
Cloud Alert Platform for Florida Bridge Maintenance
Damage Detection Tech deployed a cloud alerting system linked to embedded crack sensors on multiple bridges. Using GAO RFID data transmitters and cloud dashboards, DOT engineers received instant SMS alerts when strain thresholds exceeded, enabling 40% faster response times and reducing the need for manual inspections.
Case Study
Real-Time Alerts for Concrete Piers in San Diego
A large construction company adopted our cloud platform integrated with GAO Tek vibration sensors to monitor pier columns during construction. Alerts notified structural engineers of micro-displacements during concrete curing, helping avert post-pour cracking issues and optimizing reinforcement planning.
Case Study
Multi-Site Alert Management in Ontario Wind Farms
Damage Detection Tech enabled real-time damage detection on wind turbine blades through cloud-based systems. Combined with GAO RFID wireless strain sensors and a cloud dashboard, the alert platform supported preventive maintenance actions across 14 turbines—improving uptime by 28% in the first quarter.
