With Duke Energy’s continued efforts of upgrading obsolete plant systems, in 2019, Kinemetrics, Inc. was awarded a contract to replace the original Kinemetrics’ SMA-3 Seismic Monitoring System in service at HNP since 1987!

The Infante D. Henrique is state-owned by Infraestructuras de Portugal, in 2007 the University of Porto conducted a project to monitor the Infante D. Henrique Bridge using Kinemetrics instrumentation.

We brought together the architect’s vision, the structural engineers’ imaginative problem solving, the universities’ pride in ownership, and the inevitable budget sensitive circumstances to achieve a truly unique and beneficial structural monitoring system.
