Multi-axis accelerometers capable of detecting moderate vibrations within a structure as well as determining the amount of torque experienced by structural members these sensors may be attached to. ASH has developed a sensor with the ability to automatically shift its sensitivity from a maximum of ±2g (1 g is the force of gravity on earth) up to the ability to monitor vibrations and shocks of 600g. The worst car crash ever recorded was an impact estimated at 214g and fighter pilots can survive a 9g force for 1 to 2 seconds. These sensors can monitor forces ranging from normal daily events to those during construction or a building collapse.
