Moisture and Thermal Bridging
For all construction detailing absence of condensation and mold growth is essential. In highly insulated warm buildings, cold spots on interior surfaces will gather moisture just like steam hitting glass. The repeated occurrence of moisture accumulation can not only cause mold but also visual and structural damage.
Cold spots, lines or area's are normally caused by highly conductive elements in building fabric such as steel/concrete or even sometimes wood or plastic.
Using specialist software's we can simulate your construction details and analyse the building fabric to almost exacting details. We can then estimate if there is a deficieny in the building fabric by design.
