Tracking down construction defects with blower door measurements

Tracking down construction defects with blower door measurements

Blower door measurements are mainly used in the context of Minergie certifications to check the airtightness of the building envelope in accordance with the required standards. However, this technology offers far-reaching application possibilities that go beyond mere compliance with limit values. Discover in our blog how G+P successfully uses blower door measurements, which methods are used and how we proceed.

«As a mother of two small children, G+P offers me the opportunity to take on responsibility and manage exciting and challenging projects despite a relatively small part-time workload, and to be able to do this very flexibly, which makes it easy to combine with everyday family life. I was also able to meet my wonderful husband at G+P.»

«Noisy industrial plants are often located on the roofs of high buildings. For measurement campaigns, I therefore regularly find myself at lofty heights and can enjoy the panorama from unique locations. The combination of field work (with foresight), the analytical and editorial work in the office and the variety of noise sources and projects make the work in the outdoor noise team at Grolimund+Partner very varied.»

«As part of the pavement acoustics team, I carry out acoustic measurements throughout Switzerland and evaluate the measurement results in the office. In doing so, I particularly appreciate the thematic reference to my geography studies. In addition, unlike many of my fellow students, the combination of my professional activities and my studies was made extremely easy for me by the possibility of flexible working hours, for which I am extremely grateful.»

«On the pulse of time in times of climate change – this makes the work at G+P both interesting and diverse. In addition, a very motivated team of well-trained specialists who complement each other very well and who bring the current state of knowledge of building physics into practice. The whole thing is rounded off by a really good team spirit and progressive boundary conditions, which is why I feel very comfortable here.»

«The highly specialized expertise within G+P enabled me to train in-house as an acoustician. Today, I am happy to pass on this knowledge to new employees. I experience a great openness and willingness to help each other within the team and between the specialist teams. In this way, everyone contributes to maintaining and further developing G+P's high level of professional competence.»

«At G+P, I appreciate the good teamwork. What motivates me in working on the projects is that we contribute to a more comfortable use of the buildings. Comfort is related to global warming (summer heat insulation) and the ever-increasing density and its noise development in the building itself (sound insulation and room acoustics).»
