Abstract
In this study, a screening method to detect any damage to a lighting pole using an acceleration sensor is considered. The spectral shape near the primary vibration component of a lighting pole is focused. The selection of an acceleration sensor and the invention of an vibration method is considered, where this spectral shape can be obtained stably. By the relative comparison of spectral shapes by many lighting poles, the shapes of spectral disturbance are understood, and the relationship between the shapes of spectral disturbance and damage types is considered. Finally, the accuracy of damage detection of this screening method is clarified.
