A　prototype　of　sensored　bridge　bearing　was　developed,　fabricated,　tested　and　planned　to　be　applied　in　two　bridge　structures　for　sensing　and　monitoring　of　construction　process　and　service　condition.　Besides,　numerical　modeling　of　the　prototype　was　performed　using　the　finite　element　method　with　ABAQUS,　and　meanwhile　the　testing　results　were　calibrated.　Numerical　simulation　results　of　the　selected　two　bridge　structures　show　that　certain　bearing　reactions　are　sensitive　to　the　interested　behaviors　and　performances.　This　kind　of　sensored　bearing　is　considered　feasible　for　monitoring　construction,　damage　scenario,　and　applied　loads.　©　(2011)　Trans　Tech　Publications.
