ABSTRACT

Cracks in the concrete are the common defects in buildings and structures.
Many computer vision-based methods are used to identify the concrete structures.This
paper is developed to analyze and measure different parameters of crack in concrete
structures. Three different types of cracks are available in structures such as
longitudinal, transverse and diagonal. The main reasons of crack depend on the crack
appeared in a beam, column or any structural wall. Crack in a beam is usually due to
tension, crack in a column occur due to eccentric loading, structural cracks are formed
due to moisture change or thermal movement. The proposed method initially deals with
crack segmentation and secondly the image geometry- based parameters are employed
for crack quantification.
