Abstract
An inspection and measurement device includes a body defining a first planar face within a first bounded area, a first reference feature disposed on the first planar face within the first bounded area and corresponding with a first measurable parameter for structural inspection, and a second reference feature disposed on the first planar face within the first bounded area and corresponding with a second measurable parameter for structural inspection. The first and second reference features are positioned within the first bounded area for placement adjacent an element bearing the respective one of the first and second measurable parameters, and the first and second reference features overlap within the first bounded area in at least one direction.

An inspection and measurement device, comprising:
- a body defining a first planar face within a first bounded area;
- a first reference feature disposed on the first planar face within the first bounded area and corresponding with a first measurable parameter for structural inspection;
- and
- a second reference feature disposed on the first planar face within the first bounded area and corresponding with a second measurable parameter for structural inspection;
- wherein:
- the first and second reference features are positioned within the first bounded area for placement adjacent an element bearing the respective one of the first and second measurable parameters;
- the first and second reference features overlap within the first bounded area in at least one direction;
- and
- the first and second reference features are respective ones of a crack- or material-thickness gauge, a hail circumference gauge, and a slope gauge.
An inspection and measurement device, comprising:
- a transparent body defining a first planar face within a first bounded area and a second planar face spaced apart from the first planar face;
- a first reference feature disposed on the first planar face within the first bounded area and corresponding with a first measurable parameter;
- a second reference feature disposed on the first planar face within the first bounded area and corresponding with a second measurable parameter;
- and
- an opaque layer disposed on the first planar face and spaced from at least one edge of the transparent body, the opaque layer being disposed over a portion of the first reference feature and at least a portion of the second reference feature;
- wherein:
- the first and second reference features are positioned within the first bounded area for placement adjacent an element bearing the respective one of the first and second measurable parameters, at least the first reference feature extending past the opaque layer to the edge of the transparent body;
- and
- the first and second reference features overlap within the first bounded area in at least one direction.
An inspection and measurement device, comprising:
- a transparent body defining a first planar face within a first bounded area and a second planar face spaced apart from the first planar face;
- a first reference feature disposed on the first planar face within the first bounded area, facing the second planar face, and corresponding with a first measurable parameter for structural inspection;
- a second reference feature disposed on the first planar face, facing the second planar face, and corresponding with a second measurable parameter for structural inspection;
- and
- a third reference feature disposed on the first planar face, facing away from the second planar face, and corresponding with a third measurable parameter for structural inspection;
- wherein:
- the first and second reference features are positioned within the first bounded area for placement adjacent an element bearing the respective one of the first and second measurable parameters;
- and
- the first and second reference features overlap within the first bounded area in at least one direction.
