Who
Practising Level I thermographers
Content and timings
This course will show you how to identify conduction and convection losses such as missing or inadequate insulation, thermal bridging, air movement through the building fabric, moisture problems and how to distinguish these from heating, ventilation and air-conditioning effects. It will cover qualitative thermography and ways to quantify defects.
Additional topics include:
- Building construction technology
- Survey objectives and methods
- Environmental conditions
- Supplementary inspection methods
- Fault analysis
- Acceptance criteria
- Safe systems of work
- Roles and responsibilities
Outcomes
Level II thermographers will be qualified to:
- select the appropriate infrared thermography techniques and understand their limitations
- specify the appropriate hardware, methods and software
- measure and analyse thermographic data
- perform advanced image post processing (area analysis, montage, statistical analysis etc) and diagnosis
- apply thermography theory and techniques, including measurement and interpretation of survey results
- recommend appropriate corrective actions
- prepare reports on condition, recommend corrective action and report on effectiveness of repairs
- provide technical direction and supervise personnel at or below Level 1
- establish acceptance and severity criteria
- recommend the use of alternative inspection technologies
Documentation
Delegates are provided with a training manual.
