Research on Optimal Layout of Sensors in Civil Engineering Structure Based on Association Rule Mining Algorithm

In recent years, China’s construction industry has experienced a period of rapid development. It is one of the pillar industries of China’s national economy and has a profound impact on China’s macro-economy. However, engineering is a dynamic process, which has the characteristics of long construction period, intensive capital, many participants, complex structure and high risk, which leads to huge resource consumption and low efficiency in the construction industry. With the development of civil engineering technology in China, relevant personnel need to pay active attention to the research of sensor principle and the use of sensors in smart material structures, and promote the economic progress of China by improving the application effect of sensors. Intelligent structure of civil engineering is an engineering structure with functions of sensing, control and driving, among which the functions and characteristics of sensing elements are very important. In this paper, the intelligent structure of civil engineering is summarized, the principle and application of sensors in the intelligent structure of civil engineering are analyzed in detail with BIM technology, and an optimal arrangement method of sensors in civil engineering structure based on association rule mining algorithm is proposed.
