Overview

Rapida’s method assigns a preliminary Asset Condition Score (ACS) to prestressed and reinforced concrete structural assets.

This method utilizes results from remote, non-destructive structure surveys using video, infrared, and/or other laser imaging tools.

ACS method allows to:

1. Detect the defects in the visual or infrared range, identify, document, and describe them

2. Determine the condition of structural elements and the entire inspected asset;

3. Serve as a digital knowledge base for subsequent contact inspections or maintenance actions.

⁠

DEFECTS

Detect Defect

Measurement of defects- Length, Width, Area

Classification of defect type and subtype

Assign Severity Level to defects

⁠

ELEMENTS

Divide asset to structural elements

Calculate Element Surface Area

Assign structural criticality coefficient & hierarchy to each element.

Assign Element Condition Score. Algorithm of # defects , Defected Area, Defect Severity)

⁠

ASSET CONDITION SCORE

1.Weighted Average of All Asset Elements (Element Surface Area, Element Criticality coefficient)

2.Assign an Asset Condition Score in a criticality legend between A-E

⁠

Defect Severity – ACI International Standard

Defining hierarchy of structural elements according to the Structural Criticality.

Assign structural criticality coefficient to every type of element.

Determine the defect types, properties, and severities.

Calculate Asset Condition Score.
