Abstract
In addition to technological barriers, fundamental gaps in our knowledge of how constructed systems behave and many sources of uncertainty affecting field research are significant barriers to more widespread applications of smart systems paradigms such as the health monitoring of civil infrastructures. In this paper, the writers discuss their most relevant observations and experiences related to uncertainty in field experiments for evaluating retrofits of short and long span bridges, evaluating the remaining fatigue life of steel bridges, and ambient vibration testing for system identification of bridges with the premise that this will serve to help advance the realization of the smart systems paradigm for bridges.
