Known for its distinctive geometry, this structure is considered as one of Poland’s most iconic bridges. Despite its inauguration in 2014, a mere seven years into operation, the steel plates within the cable anchorages underwent a failure, specifically yielding. To address this issue, a DFOS system was employed to monitor and oversee the strengthening process.
