Leonardo srl carries out thermographic and reflectivity analyses with infra-red (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) light by means of portable instruments for on-site diagnosis. These analyses allow the identification of the presence of alterations (humidity, fractures, discontinuity in the brick/stonework) below the levels visible to the eye, along with modifications (adjustments, changes of direction, preparatory drawings) and every other anomaly not readily visible, thereby increasing the ability to understand the state of conservation and the specific characteristics of the work.
The on-site thermographic analyses furthermore allow the identification of the existence of hidden architectural elements or the plugging of pre-existing openings, which were hidden by successive coats and layers of facing, obtaining, through non-invasive measures, meaningful data on the project at hand.
