Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of defect monitoring of building exterior wall facade finishing layers, and specifically to a device and method for monitoring hollowing defects in building exterior wall finishing layers. Background Art
[0002] The quality of building exterior wall finishes (such as cement mortar, tiles, and paint) directly affects the building's safety, durability, and aesthetics, as they are an important component of the building's appearance and protective structure. According to industry research, hollowing defects in exterior wall finishes are a common problem during a building's service life, and users prioritize hollowing detection in the order of high-precision positioning, rapid diagnosis, non-destructive testing, environmental adaptability, and risk prediction. However, actual testing methods are primarily based on tapping, infrared thermal imaging, and ultrasonic testing, with significant differences in performance and requirements. Although hollowing detection is one of the core demands of building maintenance, it is limited by the insufficient accuracy of testing equipment, significant environmental interference, complex operation, and a lack of predictive capabilities. Current technology struggles to meet users' expectations for efficient and intelligent hollowing management.
[0003] Modern buildings (such as high-rise residential buildings, commercial complexes, and historically protected buildings) place higher demands on exterior wall quality management, especially the need for dynamic monitoring and preventive maintenance during their service life. However, existing hollowing defect detection technologies face the following key technical challenges: Inadequate detection accuracy and non-destructiveness: Traditional percussion methods rely on manual experience, judging hollows by the sound of the tapping sound. This can result in positional errors of up to ±50mm and area errors of ±10-15%. Furthermore, tapping can damage the finish, making it difficult to meet non-destructive requirements. Infrared thermal imaging methods (such as the Fluke Ti400), while non-contact, have a spatial resolution of only 15mm and a temperature accuracy of ±2°C. This can easily miss small hollow areas (<0.1m²), making it difficult to meet high-precision requirements.
[0004] Limited environmental adaptability: Existing detection methods are significantly affected by environmental factors (such as high temperatures, rainfall, and strong winds). For example, infrared thermal imaging can have a temperature error of up to ±1.8°C in high humidity or strong sunlight, resulting in a false alarm rate as high as 12%. Tapping and ultrasonic detection methods lack environmental correction mechanisms and are difficult to adapt to cross-seasonal (winter and summer) or extreme weather conditions (such as heavy rain and strong winds), limiting their reliability and applicability.
[0005] Low levels of intelligence and automation: Current inspection equipment is mostly single-function modules (such as infrared thermal imagers and ultrasonic probes), lacking a unified control system architecture. Data is isolated and processing relies on manual analysis. For example, infrared thermal imaging requires professional interpretation of the thermal image, and the tapping method requires point-by-point inspection, resulting in lengthy inspection times (60-150 minutes per square meter) and the inability to achieve automation. Existing systems lack real-time data fusion and intelligent diagnostic capabilities, requiring frequent manual operation and inefficient maintenance.
[0006] Lack of predictive capabilities: Existing technologies (such as percussion, infrared thermal imaging, and ultrasonic testing) can only detect the current hollowing state and cannot predict the risk of hollowing expansion over the next 96 hours or longer. This lack of trend prediction leads to delayed maintenance, increased repair costs, and safety hazards. For example, hollowing expansion can cause the finish layer to fall off, threatening building safety.
[0007] Inefficient resource utilization: Existing testing equipment consumes high power (for example, infrared thermal imagers consume 88% of their rated power) and lacks resource optimization mechanisms. The testing process doesn't dynamically adjust based on environmental data (such as humidity and wind speed), resulting in energy waste. Ultrasonic testing equipment is expensive (approximately 200,000 yuan per unit), making it unsuitable for large-scale deployment and limiting its economic viability.
[0008] Therefore, a device and method for monitoring hollow defects in the exterior wall finishing layer of a building are needed to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0020] Beneficial effects: The present invention provides a device and method for monitoring hollowing defects in building exterior wall finishing layers. It has the following beneficial effects: 1. This invention addresses the challenges of insufficient precision, significant environmental interference, low intelligence, prediction deficiencies, and low resource efficiency in hollowing defect detection in building exterior wall finishes. By utilizing a temperature sensor matrix, intelligent data processing, and multi-source data fusion, it significantly improves detection accuracy, automation, and maintenance efficiency. Firstly, high-precision non-destructive testing and environmental adaptability are achieved. The temperature data acquisition process utilizes high-precision temperature sensors (accuracy ±0.05°C) distributed in a 200mm×200mm grid to collect real-time surface temperature data from the building's main structure. Combined with a convolutional neural network (CNN) in the intelligent heat flow analysis process, this generates a 20mm resolution heat flux density map, accurately identifying hollowing locations (to an accuracy of ±3-4mm) and areas (to an accuracy of ±1.0-1.2%) without damaging the finish layer by tapping. This method outperforms traditional tapping methods (to an accuracy of ±50mm) and infrared thermal imaging methods (to an accuracy of ±25mm). The environmental interference self-learning correction process uses Bayesian reasoning to dynamically adjust the weights of environmental factors (temperature 0.45, humidity 0.25, etc.), controlling the correction error to ±0.08°C, adapting to cross-seasonal (winter and summer) and extreme weather (such as heavy rain and strong winds), and overcoming the high false alarm rate (12%) of infrared thermal imaging methods.
[0021] 2. The multi-source data fusion diagnostic process in this invention utilizes a random forest model, integrating temperature, heat flow, environmental factors, time series stability, and material thermal conductivity to generate a diagnostic report with a confidence score (>0.9). It automatically outputs the hollowing location, area, and repair priority, reducing detection time to 18-25 minutes per 1m², a 3-8 times improvement in efficiency compared to infrared thermal imaging (70 minutes) and tapping methods (150 minutes). The adaptive hollowing defect identification process uses deep learning to detect abrupt temperature drops (>0.25°C / hour), combined with reinforcement learning to optimize thresholds, reducing manual intervention and achieving full process automation. This meets the dynamic monitoring needs of high-rise residential buildings, commercial complexes, and historical structures.
[0022] 3. The defect trend prediction process in this invention utilizes a generative adversarial network to predict the 96-hour risk of hollow expansion (with an accuracy rate of 86-92%) based on 21 days of historical data. This process generates multi-level warnings (low, medium, high, and urgent) and repair recommendations (such as local grouting and tile re-tiling). This prevents the risk of finish peeling caused by hollow expansion, reduces repair costs by 30%, and compensates for the lack of predictive capabilities of traditional methods (such as percussion and infrared thermal imaging). The interactive visualization process generates 3D temperature field maps, defect distribution maps, and risk trend curves. It supports remote monitoring via a mobile app, voice control (in Chinese, English, Japanese, and German), and multi-user collaboration, significantly improving user convenience and maintenance efficiency.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

The environmental interference self-learning correction process collects ambient temperature, humidity, wind speed, sunshine intensity, and air pressure data through external sensors. It uses an adaptive interference filtering method to dynamically learn the laws of environmental changes and correct interference factors in the temperature data. The error is controlled within ±0.08°C and the correction results are transmitted to the multi-source data fusion diagnosis process. The multi-source data fusion diagnosis process receives the heat flux density distribution map from the heat flux intelligent analysis process, the preliminary diagnosis results from the hollowing defect adaptive identification process, and the correction data from the environmental interference self-learning correction process. It uses a multi-feature dynamic weighted fusion method to integrate temperature, heat flux, environmental factors, and time series stability to calculate the confidence score of the hollowing defect and generate a diagnosis report that includes the defect location, area, and confidence level. The defect trend prediction process receives the diagnostic report from the multi-source data fusion diagnostic process and uses a trend prediction method based on a generative adversarial network to analyze the temperature and heat flow data of the past 21 days to predict the risk of hollowing defect expansion in the next 96 hours and generate a multi-level risk warning.

It supports users to adjust display parameters through a touch screen or mobile phone application, and provides remote real-time monitoring, multi-user collaboration, and data backtracking capabilities. The intelligent resource allocation process receives the real-time power consumption and computing load data of each process, and adopts a dynamic resource scheduling method to optimize the computing resource allocation of each process in the temperature acquisition and processing end 10 based on the real-time load and historical operation data, ensuring that the power consumption does not exceed 80% of the rated power, and supports fault self-diagnosis and automatic recovery functions.
[0027] The heat flow distribution analysis method of the heat flow intelligent analysis process is based on a convolutional neural network. It combines the 200mm×200mm grid distribution of the temperature measurement unit 2 and the material characteristics of the finishing layer 9 (such as cement mortar, tiles, paint, and stone) to generate a heat flux density distribution map with a resolution of 20mm in real time. The heat flux distribution analysis method is trained using 45 days of historical temperature data and a material database to automatically identify areas of heat flux anomaly and generate a feature vector containing heat flux anomaly intensity, location, timestamp, material type, and defect depth estimation. It supports online updating of the analysis model to adapt to different building exterior wall materials and construction processes.
[0028] The cliff-like temperature change detection method in the adaptive hollowing defect identification process uses multi-scale time series analysis, setting five analysis windows of 3 days, 7 days, 14 days, 21 days, and 30 days to dynamically detect abnormal events such as a temperature drop rate greater than 0.25°C / hour or a temperature fluctuation standard deviation greater than 1.2°C. The cliff-like temperature change detection method combines a reinforcement learning mechanism to dynamically optimize the detection threshold based on historical false alarm data, cross-regional temperature comparisons, and material properties, generating preliminary diagnostic results that include hollowing location coordinates, temperature change amplitude, confidence score, defect severity, and potential expansion direction.
[0029] The three-dimensional spatial interpolation and heat flow balance method of the temperature field dynamic optimization process uses Gaussian process regression technology based on the grid distribution of the temperature measurement unit 2 to construct a dynamic temperature field model of the surface of the building's main structure 8 with a resolution of 50mm. The heat flow balance method supports adaptive grid adjustment. When local temperature anomalies are detected, the grid resolution is automatically refined to 15mm. The heat flow distribution prediction is optimized in combination with the building geometry, wind direction, and wall material to reduce monitoring blind spots. The results are transmitted to the multi-source data fusion diagnosis process.
[0030] The environmental interference self-learning correction process collects ambient temperature, humidity, wind speed, sunshine intensity, air pressure, and rainfall data through external sensors, and adopts an adaptive interference filtering method to dynamically update the weights of interference factors based on Bayesian reasoning. The initial weights are 0.45 for ambient temperature, 0.25 for humidity, 0.15 for sunshine intensity, 0.05 for wind speed, 0.03 for air pressure, and 0.02 for rainfall. The adaptive interference filtering method optimizes the weight distribution through a 21-day learning cycle to support environmental adaptation across seasons, day and night, and extreme weather such as heavy rain and strong winds. The temperature data error after correction is controlled within ±0.08°C, and the correction results are transmitted to the multi-source data fusion diagnosis process.
[0031] The multi-feature dynamic weighted fusion method of the multi-source data fusion diagnosis process constructs a feature vector including temperature change rate, heat flux change rate, environmental correction factor, time series stability, and material thermal conductivity. The random forest classification model is used to dynamically adjust the feature weights. The initial weights are 0.35 for temperature change rate, 0.3 for heat flux change rate, 0.2 for environmental correction factor, 0.1 for time series stability, and 0.05 for material thermal conductivity. The multi-feature dynamic weighted fusion method generates a confidence score for hollowing defects. When the score is greater than 0.9, a diagnostic report is generated that includes the hollowing location, area error of ±1.5%, material type inference, repair priority, and construction risk assessment. The report is transmitted to the visual interactive process via an encrypted protocol.
[0032] The defect trend prediction process uses a generative adversarial network trend prediction method, which receives temperature, heat flux, confidence score, and environmental data from the past 21 days to build a hollowing defect expansion risk model. The generative adversarial network trend prediction method optimizes prediction accuracy through adversarial training and generates a risk probability curve for the next 96 hours. When the risk probability is greater than 85%, it triggers multi-level warnings of low, medium, high, and emergency. It also generates an early warning report containing a repair time window, material selection recommendations, and construction safety tips, and transmits it to the visual interactive process.
[0033] The interactive visualization interface of the visualization interaction process consists of the following six parts: 3D temperature field heat map dynamically displays the temperature distribution on the surface of the main building structure.

When the temperature monitored by the temperature measuring unit 2 in the temperature sensor matrix 1 drops sharply, it is determined that a hollowing defect occurs in the finishing layer 9 on the surface of the building main structure 8; the temperature collection and processing end 10 is integrated with a data processing module, and all processes in the monitoring method are executed through the data processing module, temperature data is processed, a diagnostic report and prediction results are generated, and output through a transmission chip. Specific embodiment two: like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the method for monitoring the hollowing defect of the exterior wall finishing layer 9 is as follows: During the building's service life, when sunlight shines on the outer surface of the finishing layer 9, heat is transferred from the outer surface of the finishing layer 9 to the main building structure 8 through heat conduction. When the finishing layer 9 does not have hollowing defects, heat is transferred only through a single thermal resistance, namely the cement mortar material of the finishing layer 9. According to the heat conduction formula, the amount of heat transferred over a period of time under steady-state conditions is shown in formula (1): (1); in: : Heat (unit: joule, ), which represents the amount of heat transferred over a period of time; : Thermal conductivity of the finishing layer 9 (unit: ); : The cross-sectional area of the finishing layer 9 perpendicular to the heat flow direction (unit: square meters, ); : Temperature difference between the inner and outer surfaces of the finishing layer 9 (unit: or ),Right now ; : Finishing layer 9 thickness (unit: meter, );: time (unit: seconds, ).
[0037] When the finishing layer 9 has a hollow defect, the finishing layer + air is used as a series composite material, and heat transfer is transferred through the series composite material. The thermal resistance of the series composite structure is The calculation formula is shown in formula (2), the thermal resistance of each material It can be solved by formula (3).
[0038] (2); (3); in: : Effective thermal resistance of the series composite structure (unit: ); : Thermal resistance of finishing material (unit: ); : Thermal resistance of air (unit: ); : Material thickness (unit: ); : Heat transfer area of the material (unit: ).
[0039] Substituting formula (3) into formula (2) yields formula (4).
[0040] (4); in: : Thickness of the finishing layer (Unit: ); : The thickness of the air layer (unit: ); : Thickness of the tandem composite material (unit: ), .
[0041] By rearranging formula (4), the effective thermal conductivity of the series composite material is obtained: , see formula (5).
[0042] (5); According to formula (5), , when the same amount of heat is transferred in the same time, the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the series composite material can be obtained. According to formula (1), after the defect occurs, the temperature difference Get bigger.
[0043] Theoretical calculation: The thickness of the building facade finishing layer is 14 , the thermal conductivity of cement mortar is 0.9 , the area is 0.04 The temperature difference between the inner and outer surfaces of the finishing layer is 3 , heat transfer time is 3600 , according to formula (1) the heat transferred .
[0044] When hollowing occurs between the finishing layer and the main body of the building, an air gap of 1mm is generated, forming a composite material of finishing layer + air in series. The thermal conductivity of air is known to be 0.026. , then according to formula (5) the effective thermal conductivity of the composite material is , then the same amount of heat is transferred in the same time. According to formula (1), the temperature difference on both sides of the composite material is .
[0045] Through the above example, before and after the hollowing between the finishing layer and the building body occurs, the heat transferred to one side of the building body decreases significantly, resulting in a decrease in the temperature on that side. Specific embodiment three: like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the following is a complete implementation of the content described in the above embodiment: The nine processes of the first embodiment (temperature data acquisition, intelligent heat flow analysis, adaptive identification of hollowing defects, dynamic temperature field optimization, self-learning correction of environmental interference, multi-source data fusion diagnosis, defect trend prediction, visual interaction, and intelligent resource allocation) are executed in the temperature acquisition and processing terminal 10, and the basis for determining hollowing defects is explained by using the heat conduction principle of the second embodiment.
[0047] Equipment Installation and Preparation: Before exterior wall renovation, select the main building structure 8 as the installation surface. Ensure the surface is clean and flat, free of cracks or loose materials. Fabricate the temperature measurement units 2: Use a 15mm x 5mm temperature sensor 4 (accuracy ±0.05°C) and secure it to the center of a 30mm diameter, 5mm thick aluminum foil insulation 5 using high-temperature-resistant glue. Preserve fixing holes 6 (2mm diameter) on the insulation surface. Use an ST38 nail gun (15mm length) to secure the temperature measurement units 2 to the installation surface 8 in a rectangular array with 200mm x 200mm spacing. Drive the nails through the fixing holes 6 and into the wall 10mm to ensure a secure fit without damaging the sensors. Connect adjacent temperature measurement units 2 with high-temperature-resistant PVC wire 3 (1mm diameter) to form a temperature sensor matrix 1, covering the monitoring area (e.g., 100m², in a 4x4 or 8x8 grid). A temperature acquisition and processing terminal 10 (200mm × 150mm × 50mm, IP65 protection) is mounted on one side of the matrix and secured with embedded bolts. A monitor 7 (150mm × 100mm, 7-inch HD touchscreen, IP54 protection) with a built-in data processing module (ARM processor, 4GB RAM, 128GB storage) is mounted on the bottom. Matrix cables 3 connect to the 32-channel signal input port of the processing terminal 10 and connect to the monitor 7 via RS485. An environmental sensor module (including sensors for temperature ±0.1°C, humidity ±2%RH, wind speed ±0.3m / s, solar intensity ±5W / m², air pressure ±0.5hPa, and rainfall ±0.1mm) is installed on top of mounting surface 8. Data is transmitted to the processing terminal 10 via Wi-Fi. A finishing layer 9 (cement mortar, tiles, or paint, 14mm thick) is applied after the matrix is installed and cured for 28 days to ensure stability. During this period, the cable signals are tested for normal operation.
[0048] Implementation of the monitoring method: All processes are executed in the data processing module of the temperature acquisition and processing terminal 10. The specific steps are as follows: Temperature data collection process: Temperature sensor matrix 1 is activated to collect surface temperature data on mounting surface 8 at a 10ms frequency. Based on real-time data from environmental sensors (light intensity 0-2000 W / m², temperature -20°C to 50°C, wind speed 0-20 m / s), the sampling frequency is dynamically adjusted: increasing to 5ms for light intensity >1000 W / m² or temperature >30°C, and decreasing to 20ms at night or when temperature <10°C), optimizing collection efficiency. Data is transmitted via wire 3 to processing terminal 10 and stored in a local database. The default sampling period is 24 hours per day, running continuously.
[0049] The intelligent heat flow analysis process receives temperature data and uses a convolutional neural network (CNN)-optimized heat flow distribution analysis method. This method combines the thermal conductivity of the finishing layer (e.g., 0.9 W / (m·K) for cement mortar and 1.1 W / (m·K) for ceramic tiles) with the thermal conductivity characteristics of the mounting surface (e.g., 8) to generate a 20mm resolution heat flux density distribution map. The CNN model is trained using 45 days of historical temperature data and a material database (including cement mortar, ceramic tiles, paint, and stone). It automatically identifies areas of abnormal heat flow and generates feature vectors (heat flow intensity, location, timestamp, material type, and defect depth estimate). The model supports online model updates to adapt to different construction techniques. The results are then transmitted to the adaptive hollowing defect identification and multi-source data fusion diagnosis process.
[0050] The adaptive hollowing defect identification process receives a heat flux distribution map and uses a deep learning-based cliff-like temperature change detection method. Five time windows are set: 3, 7, 14, 21, and 30 days. The method detects abnormal events with a temperature drop rate greater than 0.25°C / hour or a fluctuation standard deviation greater than 1.2°C. Combined with reinforcement learning, the method dynamically optimizes thresholds based on historical false alarm data, cross-region temperature comparisons (temperature differences between adjacent measurement units), and material properties. This generates preliminary diagnostic results (including hollowing location coordinates, temperature change amplitude, confidence score, defect severity, and expansion direction), achieving accuracy exceeding 95%.
[0051] The dynamic temperature field optimization process receives temperature data and uses Gaussian process regression technology to construct a dynamic temperature field model with a 50mm resolution across the eight surfaces of the installation plane, based on a 200mm grid distribution. When a local temperature anomaly is detected (deviation > 1°C), the grid is automatically refined to 15mm. Heat flow prediction is optimized based on building geometry (wall curvature), wind direction, and material properties, reducing blind spots (coverage > 98%). The optimization results are then transmitted to the multi-source data fusion diagnostic process.
[0052] Environmental interference self-learning correction process: Temperature, humidity, wind speed, sunshine intensity, air pressure, and rainfall data are collected through environmental sensors. A Bayesian inference adaptive interference filtering method is used, with initial weights of 0.45 for temperature, 0.25 for humidity, 0.15 for sunshine, 0.05 for wind speed, 0.03 for air pressure, and 0.02 for rainfall. Weights are optimized over a 21-day learning cycle to support cross-seasonal (winter and summer), day and night, and extreme weather conditions (heavy rain and strong winds). Temperature data errors are corrected to within ±0.08°C, and the correction results are transmitted to the multi-source data fusion diagnostic process.
[0053] The multi-source data fusion diagnostic process receives heat flux distribution maps, preliminary diagnostic results, and corrected temperature data. A random forest classification model is used to construct a feature vector (temperature change rate, heat flux change rate, environmental correction factor, time series stability, and material thermal conductivity, with weights of 0.35, 0.3, 0.2, 0.1, and 0.05). A hollowing defect confidence score is calculated. When the score is >0.9, a diagnostic report is generated (including hollowing location, area error ±1.5%, material type inference, repair priority, and construction risk assessment) and transmitted via AES-256 encryption to the visual interactive process.
[0054] Defect trend prediction process: After receiving the diagnosis report, a generative adversarial network (GAN) is used to analyze 21 days of temperature, heat flow, confidence, and environmental data to predict the 96-hour risk of hollowing expansion. GAN optimizes accuracy through adversarial training and generates a risk probability curve. When the probability exceeds 85%, a multi-level warning (low, medium, high, and emergency) is triggered. An early warning report is generated, including the repair time window, material selection (such as high-strength mortar), and construction safety tips, and transmitted to the visual interactive process.
[0055] The interactive visualization process receives diagnostic reports and prediction results and generates a six-part interactive interface: 1) A 3D temperature field heat map, displaying the temperature distribution across the installation plane. Hollow areas are highlighted in red with a gradient edge, supporting 360° rotation and 3D cross-sectional views; 2) A hollow defect distribution map, annotated with location, area (±1.5%), confidence level, depth estimate, and material type, with dynamic zoom and animation; 3) A risk trend curve, displaying 96-hour risk probability, with customizable ranges from 24 hours to 30 days; 4) A user interaction module, supporting touchscreen or mobile app viewing, view adjustment, warning threshold setting, and PDF report export, with voice control (in Chinese, English, Japanese, and German) and gesture control; 5) A historical data backtracking module, displaying 60-day temperature, heat flow, and defect trends, with anomaly annotation and playback support; 6) An intelligent suggestion module, generating repair techniques (such as local grouting), material recommendations, construction time optimization, and matching local supplier databases. This interface is transmitted to user terminals (mobile phones and PCs) via 5G / Wi-Fi, supporting simultaneous multi-user access (with administrator and engineer permissions) and offline caching.
[0056] The intelligent resource allocation process receives data on power consumption, computing latency, data throughput, and memory usage for each process, then uses deep reinforcement learning (DRL) to optimize resource allocation. It predicts three-hour demand based on 21 days of operational data and adjusts the resource allocation ratio (temperature data collection 26%, heat flow analysis 24%, and hollowing detection 20%). When hardware faults are detected (such as sensor disconnection or processor overheating), the system automatically isolates the faulty module, reallocates resources, and generates a diagnostic report (including fault type, impact scope, recovery recommendations, estimated recovery time, and backup plans) that is transmitted to the visual interactive process. Power consumption is kept below 80% of rated power.
[0057] Principle of hollowing defect detection (see Example 2): The monitoring method is based on thermal conductivity differences. Sunlight shines on the finishing layer 9, transferring heat from the outer surface to the mounting surface 8. Under normal circumstances, heat is transferred through a single finishing layer (such as cement mortar, with a thermal conductivity of 0.9 W / (m·K)). However, the hollowing area forms a series structure of finishing layer + air (thermal conductivity of 0.026 W / (m·K)), increasing thermal resistance and causing a significant temperature drop on the mounting surface 8 side (the temperature difference increases by approximately 10 times, as calculated in Example 2). Temperature sensor 4 detects a sudden temperature drop (>0.25°C / hour) and, combined with multi-scale analysis and fusion diagnosis, determines a hollowing defect.
[0058] Implementation Results: This method, leveraging modular processes, CNN, deep learning, GAN, and DRL algorithms, achieves high-precision (confidence level > 0.9), non-destructive, automated monitoring. It is adaptable to cross-seasonal and extreme weather conditions, predicts 96-hour hollowing risk, and generates repair recommendations. It outperforms percussion testing (lower accuracy), ultrasonic testing (costly and complex), infrared thermal imaging (high environmental interference), mortar pull-off (destructive), and drone aerial photography (requiring professional analysis). The interface supports remote monitoring and multi-user collaboration, reducing maintenance costs and making it suitable for dynamic management during service life.

[0071] Theoretical Basis (Example 2): The thermal resistance of the hollow area increases (thermal conductivity of air is 0.026 W / (m·K)), and the temperature drops significantly (the temperature difference increases by about 10 times), which is consistent with the cliff-like drop feature.

[0111] Trend prediction: GAN analyzes 21 days of data and predicts 96 hours of risk with an accuracy rate of >85%.
[0112] Resource allocation: DRL optimization, power consumption <80%.
[0113] Verification method: The location and area of the pre-set hollowing are calibrated using an X-ray imager (accuracy ±1mm) and used as the true value. The detection results are output via monitor 7, and the error is calculated by comparing the true value with the detected value. The prediction accuracy is verified by actual expansion data over the subsequent 30 days.
[0114] Reliability: The experimental equipment is calibrated in accordance with ISO 17025 standards. The data processing module logs each run, and the standard deviation of five replicates is less than 5%, ensuring data consistency. The scientific validity of the precipitous drop was verified by referring to the heat conduction calculations in Example 2 (increasing the thermal resistance of the air layer and increasing the temperature difference by approximately 10 times).
[0115] 2. Infrared thermal imaging data source: Experimental data collection: A Fluke Ti400 thermal imager (spatial resolution 15mm, temperature accuracy ±2°C) was used to test the same sample panels in the same environments (summer, spring, and winter). A 1m² sample panel was scanned, the temperature distribution was recorded, and the thermal image was manually analyzed to identify hollows. The test was repeated five times, and the average value was calculated.
[0116] Data Processing: Fluke SmartView software analyzes thermal imaging data, annotates areas of temperature anomaly (>2°C difference), and calculates hollowing location and area. False alarm rate is based on the deviation of the anomaly area from the X-ray calibration value.
[0117] Recording limitations: Temperature error is ±1.8°C in high temperature and rainfall environments, and small hollow areas (<0.1m²) are missed. No prediction function is available. Data is derived from the device's internal log and manual records and conforms to manufacturer specifications.
[0118] Reliability Note: The device is calibrated in accordance with ASTM E1934 standards, but is affected by environmental interference (rainfall, sunlight), resulting in a 12% false alarm rate (caused by high temperature and humidity).
[0119] 3. Data source of the tapping method: Experimental data collection: Two experienced inspectors (with more than 10 years of experience in building inspection) used a hammer (standard 5N force) to knock on the sample, listen to the sound changes to determine the hollowness, record the location and area, repeat the test 5 times, and take the average value.
[0120] Data processing: Strike points were manually recorded (on a 50mm grid). Hollows were annotated by sound differences (hollow areas sound hollow), and their area was estimated using a ruler. False positive rates were based on deviations from X-ray calibration values.
[0121] Limitations: Position error ±60mm, area error ±12.0%, missed detection of small hollow areas (<0.1m²), inspection time 150 minutes, minor surface damage may occur due to knocking, no predictive function. Data is derived from the inspector's record sheet and relies on subjective judgment.
[0122] Reliability description: Data is affected by personnel experience, with a repeatability deviation of 10%-15%, which complies with the building inspection industry standard (GB / T50344-2019), but has poor non-destructive properties.
[0123] Data Analysis and Conclusions: This method detects all hollows (3 / 3, 2 / 2, 1 / 1) with a position error of ±3-4mm, an area error of ±1.0-1.2%, a confidence level of 0.92-0.96, a correction error of ±0.06-0.08°C, a prediction accuracy of 86-92%, a false alarm rate of 0.4-0.8%, a detection time of 18-25 minutes, a non-destructive method, and power consumption of 76-78%. Advantages include intelligent technology (CNN, GAN, DRL), environmental adaptability (Bayesian correction), prediction capabilities (96 hours), and a low false alarm rate.
[0124] Infrared thermal imaging method: missed detection of 1 small hollow area, position error ±25mm, area error ±6.0%, confidence level 0.78, correction error ±1.8°C, false alarm rate 12%, detection time 70min, no prediction function, affected by high temperature and rainfall.
[0125] Tapping method: missed 1 hollow drum, position error ±60mm, area error ±12.0%, confidence level 0.65, false alarm rate 18%, detection time 150min, poor non-destructiveness, no correction and prediction functions.
[0126] Theoretical verification: The heat conduction principle of Example 2 (the temperature difference in the hollow area increases by about 10 times) is consistent with the cliff-like drop in the experiment (>0.25°C / hour), proving the scientific nature of the method.
[0127] The experimental data of this method is verified through high-precision equipment, standardized processes and multiple scenarios.

[0132] Temperature acquisition and processing terminal 10: ARM Cortex-A53 processor, 4GB DDR4 memory, 128GB eMMC storage, 20W power consumption, IP65 protection grade (passes IEC60529 water and dust resistance test), supports RS485 and Wi-Fi (802.11ac) communications.
[0133] Environmental sensor module: Contains six sensors (temperature: LM35, ±0.1°C; humidity: HTU21D, ±2%RH; wind speed: FS3000, ±0.3m / s; sunlight intensity: BH1750, ±5W / m²; air pressure: BMP280, ±0.5hPa; rainfall: RG-11, ±0.1mm). Installed on the roof or wall, the number of sensors is optimized based on the area (one group per 500m²).
[0134] Monitor 7: 7-inch IPS touch screen, resolution 1024×600, power consumption 5W, IP54 protection, built-in data processing module, supports 5G (SA / NSA mode) and Wi-Fi transmission.
[0135] Algorithm implementation details: Thermal Flow Intelligent Analysis (CNN): This model uses a 5-layer convolutional neural network (3 convolutional layers, 2 pooling layers) and takes 45 days of temperature data (approximately 100 million points, 200mm grid, 10ms sampling) and a material database (100 materials, thermal conductivity 0.1-2.0W / (m·K)). Training takes 72 hours (GPU: NVIDIA RTX3060) to generate a 20mm resolution thermal flow map. The computational complexity is O(n²). The model is updated online monthly.
[0136] Adaptive hollowing defect recognition (deep learning): Based on an LSTM network, it analyzes a 3-30 day time window (approximately 50 million points) and detects abrupt temperature drops (>0.25°C / hour). Reinforcement learning uses the Q-learning algorithm, with a reward function based on false alarm rate and confidence level. After 30 days of training, the accuracy reaches 95% after threshold optimization.
[0137] Environmental correction (Bayesian reasoning): 21-day learning cycle, 6-factor data input (approximately 20 million points), initial weights (temperature 0.45, humidity 0.25, etc.) dynamically adjusted via a Bayesian network, error ±0.08°C, computational complexity O(n).

[0141] Abnormal situation handling: Network interruption: The processing terminal 10 has a built-in 4GB cache that stores 24 hours of data. It automatically retransmits after detecting an interruption (retry 3 times, every 5 seconds), and ensures connection through 5G / Wi-Fi dual-mode switching.
[0142] Data loss: Redundant backup is used (cross-validation of 4 sensors per group). Automatic interpolation (Gaussian process regression) is used when the loss rate is <0.1%. An alarm is triggered when the loss rate is >5%.
[0143] Sensor failure: When the processing end 10 detects a signal interruption (<0.01V), it automatically switches to an adjacent sensor and generates a failure report (location, time, and replacement recommendations). The failure rate is <0.5%.
[0144] In extreme weather conditions: blizzards (-20°C) and typhoons (wind speed > 20m / s), the sensor module enters low-power mode (sampling frequency drops to 50ms), and the processing end 10 uses a backup battery (12 hours of battery life).
[0145] Maintenance and calibration procedures: Sensor calibration: The temperature sensor 4 is calibrated every 6 months using a standard thermocouple (accuracy ±0.01°C) in accordance with ISO17025 standards, with a calibration deviation of <0.05°C.
[0146] System update: Update the material database (10 new materials) and CNN / GAN model (5% accuracy optimization) annually, and upgrade the processing terminal 10 via OTA firmware, which takes 2 hours.
[0147] Hardware maintenance: Check the connection of wire 3 and the fixation of aluminum foil insulation cotton 5 every three months, clean the dust on the environmental sensor, and ensure IP65 / IP54 protection.
[0148] Data management: Stores 60 days of data (approximately 10TB) and automatically archives it to the cloud (with AES-256 encryption), complying with the Data Security Act and GDPR privacy requirements.
[0149] Compliance Notes: Building standards: The methods and equipment comply with GB / T50344-2019 "Technical Standards for Building Structure Inspection" and GB50204-2015 "Concrete Structure Engineering Construction Quality Acceptance Code".
[0150] Data privacy: Diagnostic reports and prediction data are transmitted via AES-256 encryption, with access rights graded (administrators, engineers), and log storage compliant with ISO27001 information security standards.
[0151] Environmental adaptability: The equipment has passed IEC60529 (IP65 / IP54) and IEC60068-2 (temperature, humidity, and vibration tests), and is suitable for coastal high-salinity and desert high-temperature environments.
[0152] Regarding hardware compatibility, the temperature sensor matrix undergoes adhesion testing during installation to verify the long-term compatibility of the aluminum foil insulation with the finishing layer, ensuring that the air-nail fixing method does not affect the quality of the finishing layer. For irregular structures such as curved walls, a flexible grid array and adaptive interpolation algorithm can be used to adjust the distribution of temperature measurement units. For hardware weatherability, the sensors must pass a 5000-hour UV exposure performance degradation test. The conductors are made of double-shielded PVC to withstand temperatures ranging from -40°C to 150°C. Sensors are calibrated every two years, and the conductors are replaced every five years. In the algorithm implementation, the CNN model input is a 100×100 spatiotemporal matrix (24-hour time step × 200mm spatial grid). The reinforcement learning reward function is set to R = 0.6 × (1-false alarm rate) + 0.4 × confidence level. When fusion is performed on multiple features, the temperature change rate is calculated as ΔT / Δt (Δt = 1 hour). For extreme environments, sensors are equipped with anti-corrosion coatings and heating insulation sleeves. The algorithm uses Kalman filtering to process data from strong electromagnetic interference. When multiple environmental factors are coupled, dynamic adjustments are made based on a temperature weight of 0.45 + 0.1 × (correction value for humidity > 80% RH). Data management utilizes wavelet transform compression technology, compressing 10TB of data to 3TB of storage. A distributed processing framework enables parallel computation of 1.25 million points per second. The risk warning threshold is based on 1,000 sets of historical data (with an actual expansion rate of 90% when the risk probability is >85%). The repair window is calculated based on a defect expansion rate of v = 0.1 m² / day and a construction preparation time of 48 hours. For network security, VPN encrypted transmission and intrusion detection systems are implemented. Third-party inspection reports must include type inspection data from the China Academy of Building Research.
