Abstract - In order to scale back the life cycle costs of an establishment from construction to maintenance, it is very effective to monitor the structural health of a structure. At present, the maintenance and integrity checks on a structure require personnel entry into normally inaccessible areas to perform necessary non-destructive inspections. This paper discusses the implementation of a budgeted, battery-powered based collision avoidance system for use in the building. The proposed method of Early detection of building collision is where detecting the bend, or any gap in the building. If any bend in the building the sensor detects and gives an emergency alert. The sensor used for the detection of collision is the flex sensor, MEMS sensor, and force sensor. The emergency alert is turning ON the led light with the alert alarm in the building switching off the electricity and sending the emergency message with the address to the rescue team. The alert message is sent through the GSM board.

Key Words: Flex sensor, MEMS sensor, Force sensor, led light, Alert alarm, GSM board.
