structure of the exterior walkway balcony of a loft
complex.

Moisture detection (4): Plumbing breaks & leaks
28.3.6.1
General information
Water from plumbing leaks can often lead to severe damage on a building structure.
Small leaks may be difficult to detect, but can—over the years—penetrate structural
walls and foundations to a degree where the building structure is beyond repair.
Using building thermography at an early stage when plumbing breaks and leaks are
suspected can lead to substantial savings on material and labor.
