Vibration Based Monitoring (VBM) has gained more importance in the field of civil engineering as damage parameters are sensitive to vibration. This paper presents brief introduction on SHM and VBM. Traditional and advanced techniques adopted for damage identification, localization and quantification by various authors have been discussed. However it is still a challenging task for the researchers to develop a technique which gives efficient and reliable solution for a particular Structure. 2014 CAFET-INNOVA TECHNICAL SOCIETY.Article
