Re: Thermocore Infrared Roof Survey
Mr. Wolwark:
Pursuant to your request, Tremco ,I WTI would like to propose a Thermocore Infrared Survey to be
completed in order to determine an accurate assessment of the condition of all of the roofs owned by the
City of Muskego. Buildings include: The Library, Public Works Facillity and Parks and Recreation
Department. From the results, a long-term plan of action can be developed.
The estimated total roof area for the survey is 40,000 Total Square Fel~t covering 3 facilities. The
survey will include the following services for the facilities.
.
A) Thorough on-site inspection using state of the art infra-red equipment to detect areas of wet
insulation under the roof membrane surface
B) Verification of survey results - cores and moisture probe analysis to verify infrared results and the
construction configuration of each roof section.
C) Delineation of areas of wet insulation on the roof surface with yellow spray paint.
D) A comprehensive report (every roof) which includes:
1. Outlined drawings of each roof and a comprehensive drawing of all facility roofs on a 24"
x 36" roof plan showing areas of wet insulation as determined by the survey.
2. A detailed written report, including photos, of the existing construction and conditions.
3. Recommendations and specifications for the repair, restoration, or any needed
replacement of roofs can be developed based upon the results of this survey.
4. A Planned Roof Program for the next 5 years accompanied by budget estimates.
THE TOTAL PRICE FOR ALL SERVICES WILL BE $1,550.00
(Break Out of Charges: $325.00 - Library, $325.00, - Parks and Rec Dept, $900.00 - Public
Works Galrage) The survey can be completed as soon as weather permits. If we are able to
coordinate the roof survey with another client in a nearby area for the same evening, we can offer
a $100.00 discount for each facility for a total discount of $300.00.
Sincerely,
. Richard Adams
Service Sales Representative

Schedule of Work
City of MuskeSjo
1. Scope of Work
Provide a complete Roof Survey including:
1.1 Thermographic Moisture Analysis of insulation where applicable including:
1.1. .1 Therrnograms of wet areas.
1.1.2 Core and/or Moisture Probe confirmation of all wet areas and anomalies.
1.1.3 Outlining of all confirmed wet areas with an approved marking system.
1.2 Contractor shall provide a local field representative to oversee the examination of the site, the
taking of all cores and probes, the repair of all cores and probes. the interpretation of the actual
thermographic survey. and the presentation and interpretation of the finished report.
2. Work Specification
2.1 Survey all accessible roof areas using on-the-rooftop methods with an infrared imaging
scanner having a spectral range which includes the 2..5.Eì micron or the 8- 12 micron
regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. The imaging system shall have:
2.1.1 An isotherm function with the capability of detecting a temperature
diffl~rence of 020 C at 300 C object temperature.
2.1.2 A display unit with a real time TV-type display.
2.1.3 The ability to permanently record by photograph the image and
temperature on the monitor tube.
2.2 Repair all roof core cuts and probes with asphalt and coal tar pitch compatible
elastomeric roofing mastic and polyester coated glass reinforced mesh in a five course
application. Where the BURM is found to contain moisture, repairs shall be made with an
initial application of tar based mastic applied in a manner to insure water tight repairs.
2.2.1 Ethylene Propylene Diene monomer (EPDM) membranes are to be
repaired according to SPRI standards.
2.3 Indicate the areas of wet insulation on dimensionalized drawings of all the surveyed roof
areas.
2.4 All the above is to be confirmed in writing and presented in duplicate binders.
3. Examination of Site: The local representative of the contractor shall be responsible for examining
the work site to ascertain thl~ nature and extent of the work to be done.
4. Schedule of Work
4.1 Contractor shall schedule his work through the office prior to commencing his work.
Every effort shall be made to schedule the survey as soon as possible after the award of
the contract.
City of Muskego Infrared Analysis Proposal
. 4.2 Contractor shall schedule his work so as to complete and submit the analysis
within 30 days after successful completion of the thermographic data collection.
5. Owner Responsibilities: The contractor will be provided with:
5.1 Accurate roof drawings for field use when available
5.2 Access to all contracted roof areas
5.3 Security clearance for all scheduled work including notification of the necessary
local authorities.
6. Follow up Service: Tremco Field Consultant
6.1 Tremco=s local Field Consultant will follow up with recommendations and
budgets to be completed for any needed repairs, restorations, or replacements.
A 3 - 5 year plan will be developed based upon this survey.

Non-Destructivle Moisture Det1ection & Analysis
Hidden moisture is your roofs worst enemy.
It wastes energy, eats away at your roof
deck, and contributes to sick building
syndrome. Even worse, it spreads to more
and more area over time. Catch it early,
though, and you can stop it with relatively
inexpensive repairs.
A visual inspection, although valuable as a guide, provides little
data to accurately pinpoint moisture below the surface of the roof. A
Thermocore@ infrared moisture analysis provides you with a
detailed thermal map of how and where hidden moisture is located.
You get the data you need to make the best decisions with your
roof budget.
To have WTI specialist perform a Thermocore Moisture Analysis at your facility,
contact a Tremco Representative by using our Contact Us form.
. A Full Service Thermocore Moisture Analysis Includes:
Infrared roof ml:>isture survey. Every analysis starts with a visual inspection of the
roof surface, including photos of roof details and construction. A sensitive infrared
scanner is used to detect temperature differentials across your entire roof area. The
analysis is conducted at night wlhen areas of roof over wet insulation show as warmer
areas. This quickly identifies areas of wet insulation, which are then marked for
further analysis and possible removal. The moisture survey also includes~
- Infrared inspection of every square foot of the roof and physically outlining
wet areas on the roof surface
-Scaled roof drawings that show precise size and location of wet areas
- Images of thermal anomalies
Moisture probes to verify wet areas. Once our skilled technicians have identified
potentially wet roof sections, a moisture probe is inserted through the roof in these
areas to measure electrical resistance, which varies according to the amount of
moisture present.
.
Verification through core sampling. The results of the infrared survey are
confirmed by taking core samples. A proper moisture analysis program requires
some level of physical testing, which measures the quantity of moisture at the core
site and details of the roof construction. All roof cores and moisture probes are
immediately repaired with Tremco materials to ensure waterproofing continuity.
Detailed report to document the results. Everything you need to understand the

Moisture Survey: A Case Study
The initial moisture analysis
completed on this building revealed
some areas of wet insulation within
the roof system.
.
No action was taken and a second
moisture analysis 3 years later
revealed that although not
extensive, the larger wet areas had
the potential to cause excessive
damage if not properly repaired.
The decision to hold off on spot
replacement meant that moisture
continued to spread and advance
the destruction of the roof system
while increasing repair costs.
If delayed further, analysis indicated
that in another 3 years moisture
infiltration will have quadrupled in
size and the cost to replace this
damaged roof system will be more
than twenty times the original cost.
