Electronic Instrumentation and Measurements is designed as a textbook for undergraduate students
of electrical, electronics, and instrumentation disciplines. It presents a comprehensive treatment of
the operation, performance, applications, and limitations of both digital and analog instruments,
normally encountered in an electronics laboratory.
Starting with SI units and measurement errors, the text covers electromechanical instruments,
analog electronic instruments, digital voltmeters, frequency meters, and resistance, inductance, and
capacitance measurement techniques. The specialized instruments investigated in the latter half of
the book include analog oscilloscopes, digital storage oscilloscopes, signal generators, waveform
analysers, and graphic recording instruments. Instrument calibration is also discussed as well as
power and energy measurement. To make the text comprehensive, dedicated chapters on magnetic
measurements, transducers, and telemetry have been included.

Bridge managers have historically relied on visual inspection reports and field observation, including
photographs, to assess bridge health. The inclusion of instrumentation, including strain gauges,
along with a structural model can enhance bridge management. This combination of instrumentation
and modeling is commonly classified as Structural Health Monitoring (SHM). Traditional SHM
measurements are reference-independent, such as strain gauges. These sensors can be easily
installed and provide valuable information for bridge condition assessment, including neutral axis
location. The collection of global deflection of a bridge, a reference-dependent measurement, is
more difficult to collect as the connection between the bridge structure and a fixed reference is
geometrically challenging. A measurement technique that alleviates this issue is digital image
correlation. Through recent advances in digital photography and the computational capability of
personal computers, Digital Image Correlation (DIC) is a non-contact measurement technique that
can be cost-effectively deployed to collect global deflection measurements of a bridge structure. DIC
uses multiple digital cameras to photograph a target object to provide structural response
information. This project incorporates a DIC system into the bridge instrumentation and testing
program for a concrete deck-steel girder composite bridge, Bagdad Road over US Route 4, in
Durham, New Hampshire. This report presents the instrumentation selection, sensors location
planning and deployment, structural testing, DIC measurement for displacement, and strain
measurements in both laboratory and field experiments. This report also includes a detailed
structural model that is calibrated with collected field structural response data for bridge decision-
making and management.
