Abstract
Abstract A computing tool based on an intelligent algorithm generates new alternatives for an early crack detection on flat concrete slab in a surface testing. First, a system able to autonomously detect a surface crack, by means of a digital image processing system has been developed. This system carries on an effective selection of data by an algorism bound to a specialized MATLAB software that can assess in full detail the surface conditions of a concrete slab, and finding out any affected spot.
