Thermal Imagery for Evaluation of Construction and Insulation Conditions of Small Buildings.

PB265484

Publication Date	1976
Personal Author	Tanis, F. J.; Sampson, R. E.; Wagner, T. W.
Page Count	103
Abstract	Final technical results are presented on the use of airborne and ground infrared imaging techniques to gain information on heat loss from buildings. A portable infrared device has been used to examine the interior and exterior of residences. Example thermograms presented show the kind of construction defects and insulation problems which can be analyzed from ground surveys. Aerial survey imagery are shown and analyzed with residential questionnaire results.
