Drone, LiDAR or Physical Inspection?
What Actually Delivers Reliable Façade Maintenance Outcomes As façade assets age, building owners and facility managers are increasingly presented with technology‑driven inspection options - from drone photogrammetry to LiDAR scanning - often positioned as faster, safer or more “advanced” alternatives to traditional physical inspection. While each method has a role, the more important question is not how data is captured, but what outcomes are required to support façade hea


Nickel Sulphide Inclusions & Spontaneous Glass Breakage
What Building Owners & Managers Need to Understand Spontaneous glass breakage caused by Nickel Sulphide (NiS) inclusions remains one of the most widely misunderstood failure mechanisms in modern façade systems. While often attributed to material quality or country of origin, NiS‑related failures are a well‑documented, global manufacturing phenomenon that affects toughened glass used in buildings worldwide. From a façade health and asset‑risk perspective, understanding NiS in
