Structural health monitoring and contol have received a great attention in construction. Nowadays Structural heatlh minitoring is certainly one of the most powerful management tool and is therefore gaining importance the civil engineering community, therefore it is necessary to minitor the structure very properly under applied loads .It helps in the investigation of cracks and damage under applied loads, corrosion due to steel, failure of bonds, excessive strains in concrete and reinforcement steel bars, critical deflection etc. Monitoring, both in the long term and short term, helps to increase the knowledge of the real behaviour of the structure and the planning of maintainance thereoff . In the long term, static monitoring requires an accurate and very stable system, able to relate deformation measurements over years. On the other side, dynamics analysis of structure , or short term monitoring, require of a sysytem capable of measuring deformations occuring over relatively short period of time. Because of the increase awareness and efforts of aging, damage and other natural disaster it has become necessary to introduced the advanced and latest method of monitoring system and should develop new tools for indentifying thecracks and damages in the structure. Today, these tasks are done by visual inspection and very traditional methods such as the tap test. There is a check of cracks in the structure in one to two year with the help of labour for the bridges and there is a need to keep a check on building and infrastrcuture as well. The monitoring of the structure has been used from the last three decades and when the damage is sustainable it has some success and when there is insufficient damage it is not successful.Therefore there is a need to improve the technique of monitoring.
