The application of optical methods for the assessment of the aesthetic compatibility of architectural concrete

Architectural concrete is usually defined as concrete for with the requirements regarding aesthetics of its surface are formulated. The currently applied requirements regarding aesthetics compatibility are mostly based on subjective methods of concrete surface assessment. While it is relatively easy...
