Can Infrared thermography be used to inspect cracks in a building?
There are many types of lintels..So which lintels should be used in different situations..Which factors to consider while designing a lintel for particular type of construction?
What is the height of brickwork after which an extra cost for brickwork is provided as per schedule of rates?
Normally, after three meter from the DPC of ground floor level or one floor which should not be more than 4 m height, contactor can charge for extra height if it is not mentioned in the contract about this .

- Formation of cracks due to anomalies in the coating material or associated with the substrate elements.
- The diagnosis needs to establish the causes of cracks and identify the existing topography as well as the degree of damage.
- The study indicates a strong dependence on the variations of surface temperature and sun incidence with no agreement about the criteria regarding the best time to make the thermographic inspection in day or night
- The use of thermography to study cracks, detachment, and humidity are still being performed on an experimental basis.
- Thermography is used to observe the location of cracks
- Nowadays, the weather conditions in the country where the studies are being performed are an important variable in the process and results since they involve differentiation of heat flux for each study.
