Abstract
A damage diagnosis device is provided with: a detection unit for detecting that, immediately after a vehicle crossing a bridge has exited from the bridge, another vehicle is not crossing the bridge; a determination unit for determining whether the weight of the vehicle satisfies a criterion; and a diagnosis unit that, when the detection unit has detected that no other vehicle is crossing the bridge and the determination unit has determined that the weight of the vehicle satisfies the criterion, diagnoses damage to the bridge on the basis of information representing free vibration generated in the bridge due to the crossing of the vehicle, thereby improving the precision of diagnosis when damage to a bridge is diagnosed on the basis of information representing free vibration generated in the bridge due to the crossing of a vehicle.
