Using drones to detect cracks in buildings offers an advanced approach to structural inspections. By integrating aerial technology with advanced imaging tools, drones provide a safer, faster, and more efficient method for identifying structural issues in hard-to-reach areas.
Challenges
- Inspecting rooftops, high walls, and other hard-to-reach sections is dangerous and time-consuming with conventional methods.
- Ground-based checks may miss hidden or small cracks, specifically those caused by moisture or structural irregularities.
- Manual inspections require significant time and resources, especially for large-scale projects.
Solution
- Drones capture high-resolution images and videos from multiple angles, providing a comprehensive view of the building.
- Drones provided with thermal and LiDAR sensors detect hidden cracks and structural irregularities.
- Drones allow regular inspections to track crack development, allowing for timely maintenance.
- Creates precise terrain maps, identifying ground changes due to water leakage.
