Abstract

Cracks in buildings are a source of concern as they may indicate structural problems. Cracks in buildings are one of the major problems with concrete structures, as they affect the appearance of the building, compromise the integrity of the masonry, jeopardize building safety, and reduce the durability of the structure. Cracks in buildings can be a cause for concern and may indicate a potential structural problem that could jeopardize the safety and stability of the building. Understanding the root causes of these cracks is crucial to determining appropriate preventive measures and repair methods. In this study, crack and slope control in buildings was performed with an image processing-based measurement system developed using CNN deep learning algorithms. A dataset of 63 photographs was used for the study. The data was pre-processed by image processing and detected with CNN. All vertical and horizontal cracks with a thickness of 2 mm and a continuity of 4 cm were detected with an accuracy of 88.2%. Thus, crack control in buildings can be done quickly and reliably, and building safety will be ensured.

Özet

Binadaki çatlaklar yapısal sorunlara işaret edebileceğinden endişe kaynağıdır. Binalarda çatlaklar, binanın görünüşünü etkilediği gibi, duvarın bütünlüğünü bozmakta, yapı güvenliğini tehlikeye atmakta ve yapının dayanıklılığını azalttığı için beton yapıların önemli sorunlarından biridir. Binalardaki çatlaklar endişe kaynağı olabilir ve binanın güvenliğini ve sağlamlığını tehlikeye atabilecek potansiyel bir yapısal soruna işaret edebilir. Bu çatlakların temel nedenlerini anlamak, uygun önleyici tedbirlerin ve onarım yöntemlerinin belirlenmesinde çok önemlidir. Bu çalışmada binalarda çatlak ve eğim kontrolü CNN derin öğrenme algoritmaları kullanılarak geliştirilen görüntü işleme temelli ölçüm sistemi ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışma için 63 fotoğraftan oluşturulan veri seti kullanılmıştır. Veriler görüntü işleme ön işlemlerden geçirilerek CNN ile tespiti gerçekleştirilmiştir. İnşaatlarda kalınlığı 2 mm büyük 4 cm sürekliliği olan tüm dikey ve yatay çatlakların tespiti %88,2 doğrulukla yapılmıştır. Böylece hızlı, güvenilir bir şekilde binalardaki çatlak kontrolü yapılabilecek ve bina güvenliği sağlanacaktır.
