Bridge & Pier Substructure 3D Audits
Interactive 3D models of submerged concrete pilings, bridge footings, and rock scour, letting engineers measure crack lengths and void volumes directly.
What This Involves
Bridge substructure inspection below the waterline usually means a diver's written notes and a handful of stills — not much to work with when an engineer needs to track a crack's growth or quantify a scour void over successive inspection cycles. We build an interactive 3D model of the submerged piling, footing, and surrounding scour, so crack length, void volume, and section loss are direct measurements inside the model rather than estimates from a photo.
How It's Done
Full photogrammetric and, where scour depth requires it, sonar survey of the submerged substructure
3D reconstruction of piling, footing, and surrounding scour geometry
Direct in-model measurement of crack length, void volume, and scour extent
Comparison against prior inspection cycles where survey data exists
Deliverable
A measurable 3D model of the submerged substructure, supporting direct crack and scour quantification.
Who It's For
Civil engineering firms and transport authorities running scheduled bridge substructure inspections.
