An Overview

Building on decades in façade engineering consultancy, IBECE conducts field facade testing that is compliant with international standards to ensure the structural integrity, weather tightness and functionality of the building envelope. This systematic on-site testing regime ensures that the façade offers the adequate protection to the property under rain and wind storms, while at the same offering thermal comfort and energy efficiency to the tenants, paving the way towards the Net Zero Initiative. BECE team is capable to conduct professional façade tests that are compliant with international Standards.

Thermography Test

  • Detects critical areas in the facade with missing thermal insulation as well as thermal bridging
  • Facilitates targeted and strategic repairs or up aimed at enhancing the thermal performance.Fire Rated Façades
  • Optimizes energy efficiency by identifying areas of heat loss or air leakage.

Water Ingress Test

  • Tests the façade’s water-barrier system.
  • Detects & identifies water leaks, hence providing crucial data for effective waterproofing solutions & maintenance.
  • Helps in preventing water infiltration and potential damage to the building structure.

Air Tightness Test

  • Evaluates and tests air leakage through the building envelope.
  • Identifies areas of air leaks, hence delivering data to enhance air leakage resistance, and maintenance planning
  • Helps maintain indoor air quality by minimizing the ingress of pollutants and allergens.
  • Enhances thermal comfort by reducing drafts and temperature fluctuations.
  • Supports energy efficiency efforts by minimizing heating and cooling loads.
  • Enables compliance with local building codes and standards related to energy efficiency and indoor air quality.
