Integration of thermographic inspection data with BIM for enhanced concrete infrastructure assessment
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper presents a framework that integrates passive infrared thermography (IRT) results with building information modeling (BIM) to improve subsurface delamination inspection in concrete infrastructures. The paper combines solar analysis with BIM for better thermography inspection planning and documents thermographic data on delamination within BIM environment using a semi-automatic AI procedure for delamination identification. The framework was tested on two case studies: one laboratory sample with inserted delaminations and one real-scale concrete structure. As a result, besides the increase in communication related to data visualization and centralization, the volume of the delivered data and the analysis time was reduced through the application of the proposed method. The findings promote better collaboration between the civil engineering and inspection industries, utilizing advanced nondestructive techniques for detecting concrete delamination. This approach improves planning, analysis, visualization, reporting, and data storage for passive IRT inspections, benefiting infrastructure stakeholders and streamlining maintenance management. • Framework for integrating passive IRT and BIM to monitor delamination in concrete. • BIM-based solar load analysis for passive IRT inspection planning. • Proposed framework was demonstrated through laboratory and real-scale case studies. • The framework outperforms existing tools in data communication and analysis time.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
