FLIR 3-day training advanced Architectural thermography
This 3-day training is developed for those who want to commit to themal inspections of constructions.
Description
Content training advanced architectural thermography
This course combines building physics so that you can track down frequent architectural problems with thermography.
During this 3-day practical training you will learn among other things:
- To recognise heat conduction related problems in relation to the building envelope;
- To detect and analyse humidity related problems;
- To detect air related problems such as draft and air density.
- To carry out a blowerdoor test conform the norm.
The training consists of the parts below:
- Heat conduction - Here problems are discussed that specifically related to heat conduction, such as isolation problems, thermal bridges and thermal resistance (hidden building structures):
- Definition building envelope
- Temperature profiles in wall structures
- Heat transport by a building envelope with corresponding parameters such as thermal diffusivity, thermal slowness and heat capacity
- Different inspection methods according to the standards (qualitative, comparative qualitative, comparative quantitative and qualitative)
- Humidity - Here problems are discussed that are specifally related to humidity, such as relative humidity, condensation and dew point.
- Air - Here problems are discussed that are specifically related to air such as:
- Air leaks and air density
- Blowerdoor test according to European norms
- Pressure profiles in buildings
- Chminey effect and wind influence
What previous education do I need?
For participating in this course you should have followed the course Level l thermography and have practical experience with architectural thermography.
