CASE STUDY

Scope

A thermal infrared inspection was performed at Fischer Honda in Ypsilanti, MI, industry-standard practices for thermal imaging. The building roof was set for replacement due to concerns of water leakage.

 

Before the roof replacement, this thermal infrared inspection aimed to offer further insights into the roofing systems. Visual observations revealed two roofing systems, likely consisting of single-ply membranes adhered to insulation, with the black membrane identified as Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) and the white membrane as Thermoplastic Polyolefin (TPO).

Results

The thermal infrared inspection identified several thermal anomalies within the roofing system.

​

Scaled drawings were developed using color imagery and thermal imagery. The following features were identified with areas quantified in square feet (SF):

  • Roof Sections

  • Thermal Anomalies

  • Obstructions

​​

Using the acquired data, a final report was developed in general accordance with industry accepted standards.
