Rebar engineering in the construction industry lacks effective technical means and has a high processing cost and high waste rate. Under the background of intelligent construction, the centralized processing mode of steel bars in prefabricated factories realizes the automatic processing of steel bars and improves the processing efficiency of steel bars. Using the C# programming language, combined with Revit secondary development technology, the automatic generation of the rebar model and the automatic export of rebar drawing are realized, which saves time for the designers to build the model. The calculation method of the cutting length of the steel bar is analyzed in this paper, which can be used as a reference for the subsequent optimization research of steel bar cutting. The assembly position information of the steel bar was introduced into an Excel table to help realize the automatic assembly of the steel bar cage and the intelligent construction of the steel bar. Combined with mixed reality technology, project personnel can interact with the reinforced BIM model through the mixed reality device Hololens2 to guide construction remotely.
Based on the features of cracks, this research proposes the concept of a crack key point as a method for crack characterization and establishes a model of image crack detection based on the reference anchor points method, named KP-CraNet. Based on ResNet, the last three feature layers are repurposed for the specific task of crack key point feature extraction, named a feature filtration network. The accuracy of the model recognition is controllable and can meet both the pixel-level requirements and the efficiency needs of engineering. In order to verify the rationality and applicability of the image crack detection model in this study, we propose a distribution map of distance. The results for factors of a classical evaluation such as accuracy, recall rate, F1 score, and the distribution map of distance show that the method established in this research can improve crack detection quality and has a strong generalization ability. Our model provides a new method of crack detection based on computer vision technology.
The construction and inspection of reinforcement rebar currently rely entirely on manual work, which leads to problems such as high labor requirements and labor costs. Rebar image detection using deep learning algorithms can be employed in construction quality inspection and intelligent construction; it can check the number, spacing, and diameter of rebar on a construction site, and guide robots to complete rebar tying. However, the application of deep learning algorithms relies on a large number of datasets to train models, while manual data collection and annotation are time-consuming and laborious. In contrast, using synthetic datasets can achieve a high degree of automation of annotation. In this study, using rebar as an example, we proposed a mask annotation methodology based on BIM software and rendering software, which can establish a large and diverse training set for instance segmentation, without manual labeling. The Mask R-CNN trained using both real and synthetic datasets demonstrated a better performance than the models trained using only real datasets or synthetic datasets. This synthetic dataset generation method could be widely used for various image segmentation tasks and provides a reference for other computer vision engineering tasks and deep learning tasks in related fields.
Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) oblique photography technology has been applied more and more widely for the 3D reconstruction of real-scene models due to its high efficiency and low cost. However, there are many kinds of UAVs with different positioning methods, camera models, and resolutions. To evaluate the performance levels of different types of UAVs in terms of their application to 3D reconstruction, this study took a primary school as the research area and obtained image information through oblique photography of four UAVs of different levels at different flight altitudes. We then conducted a comparative analysis of the accuracy of their 3D reconstruction models. The results show that the 3D reconstruction model of M300RTK has the highest dimensional accuracy, with an error of about 1.1–1.4 m per kilometer, followed by M600Pro (1.5–3.6 m), Inspire2 (1.8–4.2 m), and Phantom4Pro (2.4–5.6 m), but the accuracy of the 3D reconstruction model was found to have no relationship with the flight altitude. At the same time, the resolution of the 3D reconstruction model improved as the flight altitude decreased and the image resolution of the PTZ camera increased. The 3D reconstruction model resolution of the M300RTK + P1 camera was the highest. For every 10 m decrease in flight altitude, the clarity of the 3D reconstruction model improved by 16.81%. The UAV flight time decreased as the UAV flying altitude increased, and the time required for 3D reconstruction of the model increased obviously as the number and resolution of photos increased.
