Infrared thermography is a diagnostic method that uses infrared cameras to visualize and record the temperature distribution on surfaces. It can be used to detect moisture, locate insulation errors, identify heat loss areas, find cracks in infrastructure, and determine proper insulation and window fits. The document discusses common insulation materials and techniques for floors, foundations, and walls of buildings. It also notes infrared thermography has been used for 10 years to identify defects in old building insulation and recommends various retrofitting measures like insulation, window replacement, and system modernizations.

2.  A diagnostic method based on the
observation of infrared radiation emitted by
each object with a temperature above
0,0K (-273,15˚C)
 A research method involving visualization,
recording and interpreting of the
temperature distribution on the surface of
the examined object.

4.  moisture detection
 Locating errors in insulation
 Locating places of heat escape in central heating
systems
 Locating cracks in water and heating network
 detection of cracks and heterogeneity of materials
 Locating bridges cracks
 Locating hot water pipes and spills and leaks, air filtration
 Identification of technological defects of building
partitions
 Determining proper fit and insulation of windows

5.  floor insulation:
on a concrete slab:
Ordinary styrofoam plates - 10cm
Hydrophobic, hard mineral wool-10cm
ballasted with thick gravel- 15-30cm:
Styrofoam of reduced absorptivity- 10cm
polystyrene plates- 8cm
 insulation of foundations:
Styrofoam
polystyrene
bucket foil or plaster
perlite

6.  Walls:
Glass or rock wool
Plates 5-25 cm
mats
Granules:
Styrofoam
polystyrene
PIR plates
keramzyt
insulating foil

7.  Specifies the continuity of insulation
 Identification of invisible elements in the
partition
 Determination of term transfer coefficient
of a partition and the size of heat loss
through a partition
 Proper diagnosis of the components of
data partitions
 Locating defects

8.  Infrared measurements began only 10
years ago
 They are used primarily for the
identification of defects in the thermal
insulation of old buildings

9.  Thermal insulation of the building partitions
 Replacement of windows
 Replacement of the door
 Modernization of ventilation
 Modernization of hot water installation
 Modernization of the heating system
 Thermal insulation of external walls
 Thermal insulation of the roof
 Thermal insulation of the floor above the
cellar
