Abstract The purpose of this study is to suggest a supervisory way to improve the efficiency of Building Supervision using Deep Learning, especially object detecting technology. Since the establishment of the Building Supervision system in Korea, it has been changed and improved many times systematically, but it is hard to find any improvement in terms of implementing methods. Therefore, the Supervision is until now the area where a lot of money, time and manpower are needed. This might give a room for superficial, formal and documentary supervision that could lead to faulty construction. This study suggests a way of Building Supervision which is more automatic and effective so that it can lead to save the time, effort and money. And the way is to detect the hoop-bars of a column and count the number of it automatically. For this study, we made a hoop-bar detecting network by transfor learnning of YOLOv2 network through MATLAB. Among many training experiments, relatively most accurate network was selected, and this network was able to detect rebar placement in building site pictures with the accuracy of 92.85% for similar images to those used in trainings, and 90% or more for new images at specific distance. It was also able to count the number of hoop-bars. The result showed the possibility of automatic Building Supervision and its efficiency improvement.
