Moisture mapping helps pinpoint hidden leaks, support insurance claims, assess roof serviceability, and guide decisions on repair, replacement, or coating—while also helping maintain warranty compliance.
This inspection used ASTM Standard E1105 window water testing to evaluate window performance under real-world conditions. By applying negative pressure to the interior of the window while spraying water on the exterior, the test simulates wind-driven rain and exposes...
Window water penetration testing supports construction quality assurance and leak investigations. QA sequencing refers to strategically timing quality assurance activities—like water intrusion testing—at optimal points during construction. Performed immediately after...
Electronic leak detection helps contractors, building owners, and insurance professionals locate the source of leaks and validate repairs. While infrared scans are ideal for identifying trapped moisture, high-voltage ELD is a precise, non-invasive method that can...
Jeff Carrillo from Structura View and Marvin Rosario from Airweb Digital , discussed a recent project where 121 thermal anomalies were detected on a monolithic 1.2 million sq. ft. roof system. What’s interesting? No visible damage, no heavy discoloration, and no...
Client Challenge The roofing contractor needed to identify and repair leaks in a roof comprised of a Modified Bitumen membrane over lightweight insulating concrete, layered on a built-up roof with gravel, perlite insulation, and a concrete deck. The primary goal was...
Commercial roofs, with their various forms and constructions, play a critical role in safeguarding buildings from the elements. However, over time, moisture can silently undermine their integrity. To mitigate this risk, we rely on specific tools to detect moisture. In...
Strategies to Overcome Worker Scarcity and Optimize Roofing Operations Roofing worker shortages have been a challenge for quite some time and according to current research, there's no end in sight. The impact of this labor shortage forces roofing contractors to...
Once a low sloped or flat roof ages, difficult leaks and maintenance problems become a nightmare to track down and properly repair. Traditional methods of finding a leak involves studying where the leak is coming through to the inside of the building and then walking...
I received a phone call about a building in Melbourne, Florida. The building maintenance engineer expressed concern for major leaks experienced in the main entrance of the building. I was told they think they had multiple problems that contributed to the leaks, but...
Thermal imaging is one step in the process of inspecting and understanding the condition of a roof. The concept is simple in the sense that we are only identifying where we suspect moisture to be. Once the anomalies are identified and highlighted, the physical...
Structura View partners with roofers to bring clarity and confidence to every project. By using advanced, non-destructive testing, Structura View provides the data roofers need to make informed recommendations and back their decisions with facts and not...
Most roofing decisions are made based on what can be seen. Structura View focuses on what can’t. By leveraging advanced tools like the Tramex Roof & Wall Scanner (RWS), Structura View identifies hidden moisture and insulation deficiencies that often go undetected...
As Structura View wraps up a project in Winter Haven, advanced tools like the Tramex Roof & Wall Scanner (RWS), combined with our analysis methodology, uncovered hidden moisture and insulation issues not visible during a standard inspection. Through strategic,...
