New innovative smart adaptive materials and optical measurement system can be implemented in civil engineering. Smart materials can be especially used in cased where fast and efficient way of reduced vibrations, weight and deflections is required. The essence of the solution is to introduce FBG sensors into the structure to make them act as its ?nervous system?. The system may be implemented in existing civil engineering structures made of steel, concrete, reinforced concrete, as well as in shells and new structur...
