Infrared Thermography for Building Diagnostics

 

Description:

During the past few years, one of the largest growth areas in thermography has been in the area of Building Sciences.  Despite their present popularity, infrared inspections of building envelopes and associated systems remain some of the most complex types of infrared inspections.  Proper collection and interpretation of data depend upon a thorough understanding of the systems inspected, their interaction with their surroundings, and the thermal patterns associated with defects.  This course focuses on common applications and key considerations for accurate inspections.  This course is a must for all thermographers wishing to perform infrared inspections of building structures.

Learning outcomes:

This course will enable you to:

  • recognize various applications of thermography to identify common building defects
  • select appropriate thermal imaging equipment
  • understand the interaction of various building systems
  • interpret common thermal anomalies
  • choose appropriate verification and reporting techniques

Intended audience:

This material is intended for anyone seeking to understand the various applications of thermography in the field of Building Sciences.  Course is relevant for both contract and in-house thermographers.

Instructor:

R. James Seffrin is a Level III Certified Infrared Thermographer® and Director of Infraspection Institute located in Burlington, NJ.  Mr. Seffrin has over 27 years experience in performing infrared inspections for a wide variety of commercial, industrial and residential applications.
