  1. Issues – the bigger picture Treated the same – when it should be different Treated differently – when it should be the same Make sure - traditional buildings are treated better

  2. Finding out the real condition of timber joists in a wall: Micro drilling to gauge strength and moisture reading to consider susceptibility to decay and insect attack

  3. Finding out if the wall is really damp and where it could be coming from by extracting samples and then using a ‘speedy’ meter or take the sample to a laboratory where the oven method will be used.

  4. Air leakage (door blower) test: Forcing air into the building, gauging its rate of leakage and by using smake to see where it is leaking from. Heat Loss

  5. Monitoring temperature, humidity, light and air quality within internal spaces, along with temperature and moisture within and on the building fabric and the weather. Analysing data and working out the influences over the environmental conditions and noting the effects and performance of the building fabric. Data can also be used for modelling future performance with the addition of retrofit measures and other works.

  6. Understanding Heritage Cottage Tests and analysis Co-heating Whole house – efficiency in using energy

  7. Understanding Heritage Cottage Tests and analysis In situ U Value tests and thermal analysis Heat Loss
