Drone Inspection: Inspections other than statutory inspections are also possible! What is drone inspection?

Why not switch from traditional exterior wall inspections to drone inspections?

Drone inspections have been legally recognized as having the same level of accuracy as sounding rod surveys due to the amendment of Article 12 of the Building Standards Act on April 1, 2022. In traditional inspection methods, workers conducted inspections using sounding rods or took images of the exterior walls from the ground using infrared cameras, followed by image analysis. However, these methods resulted in long inspection periods and made it impossible to inspect high-rise areas. With drone inspections, it is possible to inspect high-rise areas using drones equipped with infrared cameras. Additionally, by converting inspection points into thermographic images and identifying anomalies through temperature differences, defects in high or narrow areas that were previously unobservable by human effort can now be detected. *For more detailed information or specific case studies, please feel free to contact us.*

Would you like to switch from traditional probing rod surveys to drone inspections?

The inspection mandated by Article 12 is required for owners and managers of specific buildings as defined by government ordinances and designated administrative agencies. Drone inspections were legally recognized with the amendment to Article 12 of the Building Standards Act on April 1, 2022. In traditional inspections using tapping rods, workers had to set up scaffolding to inspect the exterior walls with tapping rods, which incurred costs and extended inspection periods, as well as posed a risk of falling accidents. However, exterior wall inspections using drones do not require scaffolding or other equipment, as they utilize drones equipped with infrared cameras to inspect the walls, allowing for cost reductions and shorter inspection periods. Additionally, since workers operate the drones from the ground, concerns about falling accidents are eliminated. *If you would like to know more details or specific examples, please feel free to contact us.*

Drone inspections have been legally recognized as having the same level of accuracy as sounding rod inspections due to the amendment of Article 12 of the Building Standards Act on April 1, 2022. In traditional inspection methods, workers conducted inspections using sounding rods or took images of the exterior walls from the ground using infrared cameras, followed by image analysis for inspection. However, these methods resulted in prolonged investigation periods and made it impossible to inspect higher areas. With drone inspections, it is possible to inspect high areas using drones equipped with infrared cameras. Additionally, by converting inspection points into thermographic images to identify anomalies based on temperature differences, defects in high or narrow areas that were previously unobservable by human efforts can now be discovered. (Features) - Sounding rod inspection → Workers need to set up scaffolding for inspections, incurring labor and equipment costs. - Drone inspection → Inspections are conducted using drones, eliminating the need for scaffolding and reducing labor and equipment costs.

Why not switch from traditional probing rod surveys to drone inspections?

Drone inspections have been legally recognized as having the same level of accuracy as sounding rod inspections due to the amendment of Article 12 of the Building Standards Act effective April 1, 2022. Traditionally, inspections were conducted by workers using sounding rods or by photographing exterior walls with infrared cameras from the ground and analyzing the images. However, these methods resulted in long inspection periods and made it impossible to inspect high-rise areas. With drone inspections, it is possible to inspect high-rise areas using drones equipped with infrared cameras. Additionally, by converting inspection points into thermographic images, it has become possible to identify abnormal areas based on temperature differences, allowing for the detection of defects in high or narrow spaces that were previously unobservable by human effort. (Features) - Capable of inspecting high-rise areas - Able to inspect without overlooking defects - No scaffolding or other equipment required - Inspections can be completed in a short period - Reduction of fall accidents - Cost savings For more detailed information or specific case studies, please feel free to contact us.

Drone inspections were legally recognized on April 1, 2022, following the amendment of Article 12 of the Building Standards Act. The inspection method involves using a drone equipped with an infrared device to take aerial shots of the inspection target, measuring temperature differences on the tile surface with the infrared device to detect any lifted areas. Traditional inspections require two types of methods: tapping surveys and infrared surveys, both of which involve workers inspecting the exterior walls, making them time-consuming and costly. However, with drone inspections, the inspection is conducted by capturing aerial images of the target with a drone, eliminating the need for scaffolding and other equipment compared to traditional methods, thus reducing costs and time. (Features) - No need for scaffolding or other equipment - Cost reduction - Inspections can be completed in a short period *If you would like to know more details or specific examples, please feel free to contact us.

The applications of Hyper CLT sheets are not limited to specific locations. Essentially, many civil engineering sites that have previously used steel plates are candidates for consideration. Wood CLT can be utilized in various places such as temporary roads, access routes, heavy machinery work yards, material yards, storage areas, temporary parking lots, and worker pathways. Of course, there are cases where steel plates are more suitable depending on site conditions, such as in areas with heavy loads or where heavy machinery needs to turn. The important thing is not to replace everything, but to use them appropriately according to the ground conditions, machinery, and intended use. Hyper CLT sheets are lightweight, easy to install and remove, and have unique characteristics of wood, such as reducing glare and metallic sounds, and fixing CO2. Furthermore, it is a **registered technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism NETIS "TH-250021-A."** By utilizing wood, NETIS, civil engineering, and CLT, it provides a new option for places that have previously used steel plates.

In civil engineering sites, it is important to clearly communicate not only safety and workability but also "what kind of initiatives the site is undertaking." Hyper CLT mats are civil engineering mats that utilize wood CLT. They look significantly different from conventional steel plates, so when laid at site entrances, viewing routes, or material yards, they create a strong visual impact. In particular, during inspections by clients, site tours, and public open days for local residents, the use of wood, environmental considerations, and the application of new technologies can be conveyed in a "visible form." Additionally, they are lightweight and easy to install and remove, and they offer practical benefits such as reducing glare and metal noise, as well as CO2 fixation. Hyper CLT mats are registered with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under NETIS as "TH-250021-A." They combine wood, NETIS, civil engineering, and CLT, making them a new temporary material that can impressively convey the initiatives of the site.
