DEVELOPMENT AND PECULIARITIES IN DIAGNOSTICS OF ENGINEERING STRUCTURES WITH APPLICATION OF THERMOVISION INSPECTION

Abstract

Increase of energy performance of buildings and structures is the subject of the research. Energy consumption both in Russia and abroad is analyzed, and energy performance measures and energy saving technologies at construction and reconstruction of buildings in the developed countries of the world are thoroughly considered herein. History of making thermal imaging devices and diagnostics of engineering structures is presented. Current regulatory framework and procedures for making thermovision inspection are reviewed. Main problems of energy consumption in the Republic of Bashkortostan and the frequent reasons thereof are found. Heat loss rate in Ufa is analyzed, with the results of thermovision inspection of various facilities being conducted, are given. Under the results obtained the reasons for reducing heat efficiency indicators are analyzed, economic efficiency of different insulation methods is defined, and optimum installation of enclosing structures are proposed.
