Moisture Mapping is a crucial aspect of maintaining the integrity of building enclosures. By pinpointing areas with elevated moisture levels, it allows for targeted intervention to prevent costly damage and structural issues.
Moisture analysis and measurement play a pivotal role in Moisture Mapping. They involve a range of techniques employed to determine moisture content and distribution within building materials, including:
Choosing the appropriate moisture measurement method depends on several factors, such as:
Generally, invasive methods that directly measure moisture content within the material, such as moisture meters, provide the most accurate results. However, non-invasive methods, like infrared cameras, offer a convenient and efficient alternative for preliminary assessments or large-scale surveys.
