Abstract
Cracks in the concrete structures such as cracks in the inner surface of tunnels are minor fault, however, can cause major damage or loss of lives if not checked frequently. The current method of detecting cracked surface is manual inspection by hand measuring tools and drawing sheets which may not be feasible as the tunnel needs to be blocked for a limited time period, till the inspection is in progress. By image processing, we can analyze the digital images captured from inside the tunnel for localization of cracks. The algorithm proposed in this paper can be applied to an image of the cracked surface of a tunnel for detecting the crack. Moreover, the length of the crack can also be measured in pixels.
