Abstract
![CDATA[Sydney Water has approximately 823km of gravity concrete sewers where concrete corrosion is a widespread issue. Early identification of corrosion levels is important to make decisions on fit-for-purpose renewal methods. Sydney Water and the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) have collaborated in developing machine learning models and robotic systems to identify corrosion levels in the carriers as well as to quantitatively measure the depth of corrosion and the depth of reinforcement bars. The machine learning model predicts corrosion hotspots in the carrier, which are further inspected by a manhole deployable robotic system. The new robotic observations are fed back into the machine learning model for continuous improvement. This integrated system has many advantages compared to the current practice.]]
