Structural Health monitoring system is the implementation of improving the maintenance of any structures like buildings and bridges. It encompasses damage detection, identification and prevention of structures from natural disasters like earth quake and rain. This paper is mainly proposed for three modules. First module constitutes recognizing and alerting of abnormal vibration of the building due to an earth quake. This consists of two types of sensor to predict the abnormal vibration induced by an earth quake. Second module portrays the prediction of damage in the buildings after an earth quake or heavy rain. Damage detection includes identification of crack and the moisture content in wall bricks in real time buildings. Third module presents the smart auditorium which is used to reduce the power consumption. Depending on the number of audience inside the auditorium it can control the electric appliances like fans, lights and speakers. In any real time structural health monitoring system the main issue is the time synchronization. This paper also proposes to overcome the general issue arises in structural health monitoring system. ZigBee based reliable communication is used among the client node and server node. For the secured wireless communication between the nodes ZigBee is used.
