Event control system<br />
The system will consider as an Event<br />
every signalling of anomaly, breakdown,<br />
accident, unforeseen event,<br />
intrusion, sabotage that generate an<br />
alarm, as well as all planned<br />
activities that influence the Work’s<br />
safety, traffic or durability.<br />
The management of particularly<br />
serious events, such as earthquakes,<br />
calamities, human actions, etc., will<br />
provide the information concerning<br />
the evaluation of consequences and<br />
the planning of intervention,<br />
evacuation, coordination, etc.<br />
In the following some examples on<br />
event control is shown<br />
High Wind Events<br />
Whenever the aerodynamic pressure<br />
on a vehicle is calculated to be<br />
above the acceptable limits for<br />
different classes of vehicles an alarm<br />
will be flashed to the operator on<br />
the SCADA room wall screen and<br />
the Traffic <strong>Monitoring</strong> <strong>Systems</strong><br />
manager’s screen.<br />
Information concerning the actual<br />
aerodynamic pressure can be<br />
computed based upon real time data<br />
collected by the SMS. The aerodynamic<br />
pressure will be calculated<br />
for:<br />
• Aerodynamic pressure on vehicles<br />
and wagons on bridge (for<br />
standard classes of vehicles)<br />
• Aerodynamic pressure on the<br />
bridge deck<br />
• Aerodynamic pressure on the<br />
bridge structure<br />
