Research on 3D Defect Information Management of Drainage Pipeline Based on BIM

With the age of pipeline and increase in the volume of urban sewage, the pipeline has different degrees of defects, which can cause safety problems such as road collapse and urban flooding. The service life of drainage pipes is closely related to daily maintenance and inspection, so it is very important to inspect the defects and monitor the operation of drainage pipes regularly. However, the existing research lacks quantitative detection and intelligent management of pipeline defect information. Therefore, the depth camera is used as the sensor to quantitatively detect the volume and area of the pit on the concrete pipe, and a defect information management platform is constructed in this paper. Firstly, combined BIM model with 3D point cloud, this paper proposes a 3D defect information management platform of drainage pipeline. Then, the depth camera is used to collect the damage data and preprocess the data, and a method for calculating the damage volume and surface area of drainage pipeline based on 3D mesh reconstruction of the defect point cloud is proposed. The verification experiment results show that the error between the quantized volume and the real volume is mostly within 10%, and the maximum error is 17.54%, indicating high accuracy. The drainage pipeline information model is created. Finally, the data is uploaded to the information management platform to realize the visualization and informatization of pipeline defects and the later operation and maintenance requirements of the pipeline.
