| Sumario: | The use of Remotely Piloted Aircraft System (RPAS), better known as drones, has spread with multiple and very diverse applications on last years. It includes, among other matters, the civil engineering structures inspections. From an inspection of a viaduct this article was born precisely. The inspection was conducted by the author experimentally, in order to demonstrate that the little aircraft can serve as a quality tool to make this work that is being carried out by qualified personnel and expensive auxiliary means currently. At the end, the author try to demonstrate that we can obtain identical, or even better, quality results, reducing the health and safety risks for the workers who do that work, with time and costs significant savings. |
