Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of crack detection, and in particular to a building crack detection device and method. Background Art
[0002] Due to factors such as construction, materials, and age, cracks and fissures often exist in parts such as walls, floors, beams, and columns during the construction and use of buildings, which are related to the health and lifespan of the buildings, and even the safety of the residents. The detection of crack widths, dynamic monitoring, and trend judgment for key parts are important components of building health assessment.
[0003] Currently, the more commonly used methods for crack width detection mainly include visual inspection method, feeler gauge detection method, ultrasonic method, and photograph magnification observation method. The visual inspection method and feeler gauge rely on manual work and experience, and the detection error is large. The ultrasonic detection method is easily affected by external interference. The photograph magnification observation method is relatively accurate. However, none of the above methods can solve two problems: positioning and reference, that is, the position information of the detection points cannot be saved, which is not convenient for comparing with historical data to obtain the width trend change. Secondly, the reference cannot be determined. For example, when using the photograph magnification observation method, a detector camera needs to be fixed on the defect surface, and the distance between the camera lens and the surface to be inspected of the building should be the same to achieve the accuracy of the built-in reference scale in the image, which is inconvenient in actual application. Summary of the Invention

[0016] Preferably, drill a hole near the crack, place the identification mechanism with the identification label in the hole and fix it on the wall through the bonding layer, input the number through the touch display screen, and write the number into the identification label through the card reader.
[0017] Preferably, the gray gradient descent method is used to detect the image width of the crack contour and the image width of the reference external head contour. The actual crack width calculation formula is as follows:
[0018]
[0019] Among them, h1 is the image width of the crack contour, h2 is the image width of the reference external head contour, and R is the radius of the reference external head.
[0020] Preferably, the change trend includes an unchanged trend and an increasing trend, and the increasing trend includes increasing speed data.
[0021] Therefore, the present invention adopts the above-mentioned building crack detection device and method, and has the following beneficial effects:
[0022] (1) Bind the identification mechanism with the building crack to realize the positioning of the building crack detection point.
[0023] (2) The detection is carried out by comparing the reference external head with the crack width, which is convenient to operate.
