Monitoring of the Cracks on Bell Tower of ST. Anastasia Cathedral in Zadar Croatia
Abstract
The bell tower of the cathedral of St. Anastasia in Zadar is a major landmark and an important cultural object which has been a subject of strong restoration and preservation efforts for many years. In order to determine the long term stability of the existing cracks, a monitoring system consisting of 8 fiber optic displacement sensors was installed in October 2012. This paper presents the previous structural assessment work as well as the results of the crack displacement measurements. Special attention is given to the analysis of correlation of crack displacements to the temperature and possible other outer disturbances.
