Advanced Technologies and Methods
Infrared Thermography
Use of thermal cameras that allow visualizing temperature differences in construction elements, detecting non-visible issues such as hidden dampness, thermal bridges, or insulation defects.
- Air leak detection and infiltration points
- Location of non-visible dampness
- Identification of faults in installations
- Non-invasive inspection of concealed elements
Technical Endoscopy
Use of endoscopic cameras that allow inspection of the interior of building elements, cavities, or ducts without the need for large openings or demolitions.
- Inspection of air chambers and false ceilings
- Inspection of the interior of installation ducts
- Structural cavity inspection
- Minimally invasive verification
Moisture Meters
Specialized devices that allow for precise quantification of moisture levels in different building materials, helping to determine the extent and severity of moisture problems.
- Mapping of areas affected by humidity
- Quantitative measurement of water content
- Monitoring of moisture progression
- Treatment effectiveness verification
Non-Destructive Testing
Techniques that allow the evaluation of properties and characteristics of materials and construction elements without causing damage, using physical principles such as ultrasound, radiography, or sclerometer.
- Estimation of concrete strength
- Detection of reinforcement and its condition
- Material homogeneity evaluation
- Identification of internal discontinuities
