Nuclear Gauge Testing is Leading-Edge Technology used to create an accurate mapping of moisture in any roof. Nuclear Gauge testing is non-destructive technology involving neutron thermalization and can be used year-round in virtually any environmental condition and on any surface. Nuclear Analysis provides the most accurate and detailed information of any surface testing method. Readings can be taken through multiple roof layers or heavy ballast. To conduct a Nuclear Analysis, a trained technician will measure and grid the roofing structure creating an accurately plotted grid map. The rate responses (moisture readings) are taken and inserted into the grid allowing for an in-depth analysis of the roofing system. The rate response readings are then statistically analyzed producing data that is used to report the hydrogen levels discovered within different areas of the roofing system and substrate. A roof moisture histogram (bell curve) is developed to statistically evaluate the numeric readings. Readings are also converted to a graphic format to create an illustrative roof plan.
