Shepherd Consulting Services

Infrared Technology

John Shepherd is a Certified Building Science Thermographer (ITC).

At SCS, we use the latest FLIR infrared camera's to provide comprehensive thermographic inspection and analysis:

• On commerical and residential low-sloped roofs to identify the locations of wet and/or missing roof insulation (which is then verified by a Tramex capacitance meter.
  
• To identify condensation accumulation in roof and wall assemblies.
• As a moisture scan tool to provide evidence of moisture in walls, under roofs and under balconies. 
  
• On CMU block wall constructed commercial buildings for compliance with structural requirements (this is an accurate, non-destructive and inexpensive way to see the grouted cells in an entire wall section that can be performed at any time during the construction process without interrupting any other trades or affecting the progress of the rest of the building).
  

The data collected is then presented to the client in a comprehensive graphic detailed report based on appropriate standards specific to that application.
