Yes, GRASS is required since SG3d is a GRASS program module, it reads data
in GRASS format and requires GRASS libraries for compilation.

You can get GRASS via anonymous ftp on moon.cecer.army.mil.
Get the README file in /grass for more information & you will also want to
get some documentation in /grass/grass4.0/documents.  The next version of
GRASS (grass4.1) will be released soon, so you may want to wait for that.

Once you have the GRASS source code, SG3d is located in:
src.contrib/CERL/SGI/SG3d
The README file there describes compiling SG3d, since contributed code is
not automatically compiled when installing GRASS.
