System and method for monitoring structures
 A system is disclosed for monitoring strain on a structure, such as a bridge. A plurality of battery powered wireless monitoring units are adapted for attachment to the structure, each or the units including: a sensing transducer for producing signals representative of strain, processing circuitry for processing strain-representative signals, the processing circuitry including a rain flow counter, storage for storing, as processed signals, accumulated rain flow counts of predetermined magnitudes, and a transmitter for wireless transmission of the processed signals to a receiver.
