Thanks for your answer berak,

You are right, these cracks/failures can come in any size or shape, but they tend to have a determinated orientation or angle depending of the reason of the failure (shear, flexure, etc), and obviously the crack comes always in gray/grey.

Here is an ilustration of how the shear failures comes, and a picture of a real shear failure.

As you can see the shear failure tend to come in a 45° angle

Hello,

Im a civil engineering student, and I will do my thesis about recognizing structural failures on concrete walls. Im searching for information about which method/algorithm would be the better for this purpose.

I spect to have 200+- images for training like this: .

I read about LBP, Haar-like, HOG+SVM, SURF and SIFT, but I really dont know which one would be better.

If some1 can help me Ill very very thankful.

ps: sorry for my english, im not native.
