Cladding Lack of Adherence in Facades of Buildings

From Flir Systems Incorporated
 

 

In this work we applied infrared thermography to the inspection of building facades to determine the lack of adherence, which is disguised in the external cladding of a facade composed of appeased stone. The biggest problem involved is the detachment of various sized pieces on the sidewalk because of the consequent danger it poses to people and things. The research was based on the laboratory construction of two wall models simulating an enclosure type of facade. Those models were built with stone placated of 20 and 30 mm respectively, stuck to the brick factory with a mortar of glue cement where a number of defects in size and shape were created. In addition, the back dwelling was heated, testing different temperature gradients.
