Abstract
The present invention relates to a sensor device, system, and monitoring system for monitoring force and inclination of load supporting members, such as temporary support props. The sensor devices include a tubular member that interface with and slidably/detachably attached to the temporary support props, and sensors on the tubular member for measuring force, inclination and position of the temporary support props for construction and demolition work. The sensor device includes a controller for processing data from the sensors. The sensor system includes a wireless device that communicates with the sensor device. The sensor system further comprises positioning device, such that precise location or position of the sensor devices may be detected/calculated by the sensor system. The monitoring system includes a server that communicates one or more sensor systems to form a network.
