  • Abstract
    As the acquaintance with the safety of structure is improved, the structure health monitoring play a more important role, in which damage identification is a key problem. In this paper, for reinforced concrete beams, β index and η index based on flexibility matrix are proposed to detect damage. Two RC beams with a span of 7m are tested and the proposed indexes are used to identify damages.
