用低成本摄影测量法重建骨料3D模型，对比2D与3D形态差异。

Aggregates, serving as the main skeleton in assemblies of construction materials, are important functional components in various building and transportation infrastructures. They can be used in unbound layer applications, e.g. pavement base and railroad ballast, bound applications of cement concrete and asphalt concrete, and as riprap and large-sized primary crushed rocks. Information on the size and shape or morphology of aggregates can greatly facilitate the Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) process by providing insights of aggregate behavior during composition and packing. A full 3D characterization of aggregate particle morphology is difficult both during production in a quarry and at a construction site. Many aggregate imaging approaches have been developed to quantify the particle morphology by computer vision, including 2D image-based approaches that analyze particle silhouettes and 3D scanning-based methods that require expensive devices such as 3D laser scanners or X-Ray Computed Tomography (CT) equipment. This paper presents a flexible and cost-effective photogrammetry-based approach for the 3D reconstruction of aggregate particles. The proposed approach follows a marker-based design that enables background suppression, point cloud stitching, and scale referencing to obtain high-quality aggregate models. The accuracy of the reconstruction results was validated against ground-truth for selected aggregate samples. Comparative analyses were conducted on 2D and 3D morphological properties of the selected samples. Significant differences were found between the 2D and 3D statistics. Based on the presented approach, 3D shape information of aggregates can be obtained easily and at a low cost, thus allowing convenient aggregate inspection, data collection, and 3D morphological analysis.
