High precision structural displacement monitoring is challenging, but an effective method for structural health monitoring and particularly damage evaluation. In this paper, a high precision fiber Bragg grating (FBG) displacement sensor with embedded spring is developed to monitor structural displacement variation even at very small ranges. The principle of such monitoring is based on the central wavelength shifts in accordance with the displacement between measuring points. Calibration experiments are conducted to examine the performance of the innovative displacement sensor. The result indicates that the sensor has excellent linearity and repeatability, with the sensitivity coefficient being 23.96[Formula: see text]pm/mm, and the static relative error is 4.94% after three loading and unloading cycles. The displacement sensor therefore shows an excellent sensitivity and high precision for application. Moreover, it has been verified that this sensor is suitable and applicable for displacement monitoring in quasi-static experiment of structures.
