Over the last 50 years, a number of catastrophic bridge failures have called attention to the disrepair ofnational infrastructure systems and the need for structural health monitoring. For example, the I-35W Bridge inMinneapolis, Minnesota, catastrophically failed on August 1, 2007 without warning. In recent years, the bridge wasrated as “structurally deficient” after annual inspections revealed corrosion, poor welding details, fatigue cracking insteel members and dysfunctional bearings considering the catastrophe of the I-35W Mississippi River. While noconclusions can yet be drawn as to the cause of the bridge’s catastrophic failure. it is critical to implement a system tomonitor the health of bridges and report when and where maintenance operations are needed. Therefore, it is importantto have a systematic approach to monitor the health of a bridge. Bridge Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) has rapidlybecome one of the main interests in civil engineering field. Inexpensive and efficient SHM method utilizing.
