- Abstract
This paper introduces a novel approach to assessing structural safety, specifically aimed at evaluating the safety of existing structures. Firstly, a point cloud model of the existing commercial complex was captured utilizing three-dimensional (3D) laser scanning technology. Subsequently, an intelligent method for identifying holes within the point cloud model was proposed, built upon a YOLO v5-based framework, to ascertain the dimensions and locations of holes within the commercial complex. Secondly, Poisson surface reconstruction, coupled with partially self-developed algorithms, was employed to reconstruct the surface of the structure, facilitating the three-dimensional geometric reconstruction of the commercial complex. Lastly, a finite element model of the framed structure with holes was established using the reconstructed 3D model, and a safety analysis was conducted. The research findings reveal that the YOLO v5-based intelligent hole identification method significantly enhances the level of intelligence in point cloud data processing, reducing manual intervention time and boosting operational efficiency. Furthermore, through Poisson surface reconstruction and the self-developed algorithms, we have successfully achieved automated surface reconstruction, where the resulting geometric model accurately reflects the dimensional information of the commercial complex. Additionally, the maximum uniformly distributed surface load that the floor slabs within the framed structure with holes can withstand should not exceed 17.7 kN/m
2 , and its vertical deformation resistance stiffness is approximately 71.6% of that of a frame without holes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published
