3D IMAGING OF ETICS WALL DEFORMATION USING 3D SCANNING

An ETICS wall can undergo irregular deformations due to climatic influences. The location and measurement of these deformations are difficult due to the large observation area and the technical conditions of measurement. Classical methods of deformation control using linear gauges, for example, are difficult to implement and not very accurate. For the observation of large surfaces and precise measurements, optical measuring techniques including 3D scanning can be used. Three-dimensional digital imaging, using laser scanning, makes it possible to map an object with high accuracy. This paper presents pilot measurements of an ETICS wall using 3D laser scanning techniques. A wall model was observed with an EPS insulation layer and a single separated mineral wool fire protection strip. The model was subjected to cycles of climatic influences. Deformation measurements were taken after specific stages of thermal and moisture exposure. By superimposing the images of the object obtained before and after the climatic influences and applying numerical inspection techniques, it was possible to obtain qualitative and quantitative changes in deformation concerning the entire field of observation. As a result, measurable changes in the topology of the wall surface were observed.
