Abstract
Existing reinforced concrete buildings have experienced different forms of failures due to limitations in analysing and interpreting the information derived from the study of their behaviour under loading. Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) which is the study of the way structures relate with different loading conditions using equipment and machine that can read data without affecting the existence of the structure has been analysed in times past using different methods and there is need to bring in probabilistic methods in terms of reliability-based paradigm, i.e., reliability theory to analyse and interpret SHM data. Reliability method expresses logical handling of structural design uncertainties in the assessment of the structures safety and serviceability, it provides a very powerful tool for SHM to add probabilistic structural evaluation function that current SHM applications and statistical analysis packages do not have. This review study looks into different ways SHM data have been analysed and the need to introduce probabilistic approach to SHM.
