Innovative technologies for the inspection of building structures

Abstract

All buildings and structures must be regularly monitored for the issue of physical deterioration of their structures in accordance with the deadlines provided for each building, depending on a number of reasons stipulated by regulatory documents. Traditional examination methods do not always suit researchers, as each of them has its drawbacks. Therefore, they are usually used in a comprehensive manner. One of the directions of development of the construction industry is the emergence of new technologies for the inspection of building structures, which would not only speed up the process of inspection and identification of possible structural defects, are less laborious, but could also predict the behavior of the structure in the future. For the same purpose, many researchers are working on the creation of new equipment that would help solve the tasks set. This approach to the technical inspection process not only helps to maintain buildings and structures in proper technical condition, but also optimizes the costs of their major repairs and restoration.
