Crack
Tracker

Build a repeatable crack record from width, date, location and change instead of relying on memory.

Core principleA single width is context. Repeated measurements reveal direction, pace and whether movement has stabilized.
INPUT

Compare two observations

Use the same marked point and measurement method.

Current0.4 mm

The recorded difference is small enough that measurement repeatability may be as important as movement.

Next useful recordRepeat at the same marked point and photograph the scale, endpoints and surrounding opening or finish.
Local measurement log

The trend is the evidence.

No locally saved observations yet.

01

Mark one segment

Do not move between different branches of the crack when comparing width.

02

Photograph the context

Include the whole opening or wall, then the scale and exact point.

03

Track companion symptoms

Door binding, floor change and related exterior cracks can alter the priority.

04

Preserve uncertainty

The tracker measures change; it does not identify the structural cause.
