Investigation of water leakage through façade systems including windows and metal cladding can be carried out by either destructive or non-destructive processes depending on the particular conditions on site. Water tests to current Standards are also options that are available to establish water tracking routes and to confirm subsequent remedial repairs.
Glass breakage investigations due to mechanical failure, impact and thermal stress are part of the extensive scope of services that we are able to offer. We also investigate and report on the spontaneous breakage of Toughened (tempered) glass. Our 35 years of experience in the building façade industry complements the Systems Engineering approach to the investigation of façade deterioration and failures.
Glass is made to a variety of Standards and issues can arise where the quality of the glass is questioned. Investigations and Reports on the quality of installed glass panels based on relevant National and International Standards are available. |
