At the Oresund cable stayed bridge in Sweden the cable stay outriggers where instrumented in order to monitor fatigue development at the outrigger root for design verification. In order to calibrate a local FE model a 5 kN force was applied to the outrigger in order to monitor the resulting strain. The structural monitoring and the FE model showed up to provide almost the same result.
