Monitoring of civil infrastructure systems has emerged as a powerful tool for condition assessment of infrastructure performance. Structures could be monitored periodically from a central station located several kilometres away from the field with help of widespread use of modern telecommunication technologies. Fibre sensing technology is increasingly used in civil engineering applications. Distributed fibre optic sensing offers the ability to measure temperatures, strain, leakage, etc., at thousands of points along a single fibre. A case of seepage along plinth of concrete faced Derince Dam, located in Turkey, is measured continuously and presented in this paper while an application of distributed fibre sensor technology is used. The case helps to disclose potential leakage along the plinth in order to minimise any risk.
