Jul 04, 2020· We have proposed a visual inspection technique for concrete structures using deep learning and a hardware ecosystem, an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). The UAV is a quadcopter that can fly to unreachable sections of a site which consists of a camera that captures images of the concrete surfaces via a mobile device and feed the real time images in the CNN model. The images taken from …

Sep 01, 2018· 1. Introduction. Ultrasonic imaging has been extensively used for detecting defects in concrete structures (e.g., bridge decks [,, ], concrete columns [], pavements [5,6], and tunnels []).The Synthetic Aperture Focusing Technique (SAFT) has been employed in current ultrasonic equipment to investigate concrete structures (e.g., MIRA [], EyeCon [], and Pundit []), assuming concrete as a ...
2. Methods for Inspection and Evaluation of Concrete Structures in General. Maintenance of concrete structures is done by the engineers who take care of the structures. In case of public structures, the ministries, etc., maintain the structures as soon as they are completed.
This is a guide for a visual inspection of concrete in service. A visual inspection is an examination of concrete to identify and define many of the various conditions concrete may exhibit during its service life. The visual inspection is typically limited to the surfaces of the concrete structure that are visually accessible. 1.2—Introduction
Inspection Manual for Precast Concrete Pipe and Structures . May 2014
Mar 07, 2020· Types of Reinforced Concrete Structure Inspections 1. Inventory Inspection. Inventory inspection is carried out when the construction of a structure is ended and it becomes ready to be delivered, when a change in configuration is applied, or when a structure is ready back to service after a major intervention.
Visual inspection is one of the most versatile and powerful of the NDT methods, and it is typically one of the first steps in the evaluation of a concrete structure. Visual inspection can provide a wealth of information that may lead to positive identification …
