ELD Successes and Failures: Lessons From The Field
Sponsored by Duro-Last®, Inc., FiberTite Roofing Systems, and Polyglass U.S.A., Inc. | Presented by Peter Brooks
Webinar On-Demand
Technician performing low-voltage vector mapping
In this webinar we will explain how high and low voltage electronic leak detection techniques work, and discuss how to select the best technique for different roofing and waterproofing assemblies. Attendees will learn about challenges involved in assuring that a proper ground is available in the system to be tested, including the limitations of conducting low voltage testing through various types and depths of overburden material. With these concerns in mind, we will discuss the importance of managing the expectations of customers and stakeholders regarding the ability to accurately test during system assembly and the assembly’s service life.
Peter Brooks has made numerous technical presentations for national conventions, industry training seminars and specialty trade groups, and formerly served as RCI Region I Director.
