Applications of Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensor in building and civil infrastructure are reviewed. In Japan, subsequent to the Kobe earthquake and the “Shinkansen” tunnel accident, research and development of sensing system for building and civil infrastructure is being actively pursued. FBG sensor is considered to be promising sensor in this regard due to its high efficiency in these applications. As an example, FBG sensors installed on an actual building is illustrated. In addition, the problems currently faced are discussed and examined.
