Framing & Shooting Protocol

  1. Overview shot: Capture the general context (structure, nearby features) from 1–3 m to show location. Include an arrow or label in the frame pointing to the crack.
  2. Mid-range shot: Frame the affected element so the crack and scale markers are clearly visible; fill most of the frame with the defect.
  3. Close-up shots: Take perpendicular close-ups at intervals along the crack (e.g., every 0.5–1 m), ensuring scale is visible and in the same plane as the crack.
  4. Oblique shot: One angled shot (~30°–45°) can help reveal depth, offsets, or surface texture.
  5. Repeatability: Record exact camera distance, focal length, and tripod height for consistent future imaging.
