Computer Vision and Sensors for Detecting Defects in Protective Shells
Prioritizing Repairs – Focusing on the most critical issues first is key to efficient building maintenance.
Infrared thermography, visual inspections, hygrometers, and drones are all valuable tools used in façade assessment.
Prioritizing Repairs
Risk/Effect/Cost – Assessing the potential damage, its impact, and the associated expenses helps determine the urgency of repairs.
BIM/CAFM, defect maps, cost estimates, and tracking remediation efforts are all essential components of a comprehensive repair strategy.
When to Inspect? Cold Days / Temperature Contrast
Drones? They can accelerate the inspection of facades and roofs by providing aerial views.
BIM? Linking defects to specific building elements allows for precise documentation and targeted repairs.
