The client’s property is on the left. The leaking flat roof upstand is on the right.... it’s always the upstand terminations that leak 🤪. The thermal image shows, during the rain simulation test, the pathology of water tracking across to the clients apartment. Other parties have been adamant that the leak was coming in above the damage or further to the left, having billed for their assessments and undertaken eliminatory repairs to numerous areas several metres from the defective upstand termination with the wall. Here, I show the water from the simulation test tracking from the upstand, behind the termination bar, under the flat roof waterproofing membrane, down the internal face of the structural wall, and across the wooden substrate/ soffit, running in the aluminium stud supports for the suspended ceiling. The water then drips down 4.8m from the point of entry. I took before, during and after thermals and... they shoulda come to us first 🙂

New tool for testing the comparative compression strength of concrete. Need it for a specific project. Going be taking comparative readings from the underside of the cantilevered concrete walkways, at the cantilever root, with a cherry picker to take me up underneath them all.

Whilst the walls of the building are cavity wall and therefore any water contact with the outer skin of the cavity wall has little to no opportunity to pass through to the internal skin of the cavity wall (save for bridging variables within the cavity), we still note concern with the proximity of the bushes to the walls. First, the bushes provide a bridge of the structure’s damp proof course. Where rain water hits the bushes around the building, it splashes off against the walls at a level above the damp proof course resulting in the external wall becoming exceptionally wet. The bushes then shield the wall from sunlight resulting in it taking longer to dry out naturally. Regardless of whether water makes it through the outer skin and into the interior directly (which we do not propose is happening), where the outer skin of the cavity wall becomes wet, it becomes denser, where it is denser, it is a better conductor of energy. Where one part of a wall conducts energy at a faster rate than another part of a wall, there will be disparity in the rate of expansion and contraction. As such, cracking can occur. Upon inspection of the external skin of the cavity wall, vertical structural cracking was observed under the kitchen window sill, behind the bushes.

Investigating water damaged bathroom and kitchen in E5. The darker colours show colder temperatures and brighter colours, warmer temperatures, in these thermal images. We observe the pathology of what is quite likely a copper hot water pipe running toward the centre of the kitchen floor, with a 90o corner junction soldered, to facilitate a turn toward the bathroom. We note a dark patch spreading away from the corner of that 90o copper pipe junction. These patterns are indicative of a leak from this point in the plumbing run. We present this as Justification for the excavation of the floor to facilitate the exposure of the junction
