The Verification of Range of Chemical Grouting of Wet Masonry by Theoretical Modeling and by Using Infrared Camera

Abstract

Improving properties of materials is an integral part of almost of all remedial interventions; one of the most challenging remediation is the remediation of damp masonry. With the development of advanced technologies in the field of remedial chemicals there is one of the increasingly used methods – the method of high-pressure chemical grouting. Its use, however, raises the question how to control the quality of the design. This article deals with the possibility of mathematical modeling of grouting design of damp masonry and using the indirect method based on infrared radiation for subsequent checks.

Mold Growth Risk Analysis on the Surfaces of an Organic Building Structure Based on <i>In Situ</i> Monitoring

“…Thermal insulation was proposed above the ceiling, while between attic and interior of Orangery water vapor barrier was not used, since it handles about a historically protected building and the water vapor barrier could damage its historical aspects as well become dangerous for the roof construction. The attic space investigations were done by using a thermal imaging camera inspection [4] to locate excessive moisture area of the formwork and timber structures (Figure 1).…”
