ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT: A bridge, one of primary infrastructures in our society, can be damaged structurally from unexpected environmental changes such as earthquake, storm, or flood. Therefore, bridges have risks of collapse or decrease of life span. Recent researches on safety assessment for structures using fiber optic sensors and real-time measuring system are actively being done in order to obtain basic data of structural damages, degree of damages, and structural problems. At this point of time, this study is to recommend transmission of data measured with FBG (Fiber Bragg Grating) sensor by means of Bluetooth, the wireless communication system.
