Forensic analysis and destructive testing is sometimes required to accurately determine the configuration and condition of components within a building envelope assembly. Our 40-years of field experience in the construction industry allows for accurate assessment of building materials and components in failure mode. Other types of testing JSH conducts as part of moisture intrusion investigations and building envelope evaluations include RILEM moisture absorption testing, electrical capacitance moisture detection testing, and infrared thermography. JS Hardy can accommodate and provide a wide variety of ASTM compliant testing services.
Whether you project recquires analysis of materials provided and systems installed, or if the performance of any building envelope component is in question, JSH can perform the appropriate testing to assist in evaluating any deficiencies or in confirming compliance with prescribed criteria.
