Structural engineers have traditionally designed concrete elements with reinforcing steel (in form of bars, stirrups and meshes) to meet the requirements for creating certain types of structures.
Plastic 3D printed elements are a promising type of reinforcement that has been previously underestimated (according to a review of state-of-the-art applications of 3D printing in civil engineering [8,19]).

The main parts of the SHM in civil engineering are damage detection and localization, which are essential monitoring zones for structures after major events such as earthquakes.
Though numerous damage detection methods are already developed for Structural Health Monitoring (SHM), most of them are not feasible or practical for large-scale civil structures due to the challenges such as high equipment costs, long setup time, difficulties in cabling and the long computation time.
