Innovative Engineering Uses Drone Tech for Structural Building Inspection

ATLANTA - July 19, 2022 - PRLog -- Are you up to date on your building inspections?

When is the last time you had a thorough roof and façade inspection done by a professional company?

There are currently 12 cities in the United States with ordinances that mandate periodic inspections of building façades, most of which are located in the Midwest. However, across the country, many building owners and managers elect to partake in voluntary façade inspections for both safety and long-term financial reasons.

Drone technology has become a great asset to structural building inspection techniques. Drones equipped with infrared cameras can quickly and efficiently document large areas of a building and capture the footage for later inspection.

Thermal imaging is best utilized after sunset. Dry insulation cools off faster, so the areas that have been penetrated by water will remain brighter when viewed through an IR camera.
