With a growing use providing safe FRP components becomes more and more important since FRP structures are being used in the automotive, aerospace and civil engineering sector.
Without a reliable technique for structural health monitoring (SHM) of FRP parts, engineers tend to use classical and well known e.g. metal based components [1].
For the civil engineering sector an effective way for condition monitoring is the use of fiber optic sensors with fiber bragg grating (FBG).
