Risk Point Assessment
Know the most at-risk parts of your building, and you will know your building.
 
The Mdu Probes are installed based on the details of a building - not only areas that are showing leaking. Mdu Probes are installed close to the areas and details most likely to leak - based on industry experience. High Risk areas are defined from a number of sources: (a) the BRANZ Weathertightness Identification of risk poster (see below), (b) MDC database analysis results and (c) issues raised by those involved in the construction and investigation of the house. These areas typically include exterior features such as:
 
Complex roof junctions    
Penetrations    
parapets, balustrades, pergolas and handrails    
windows, doors, balconies, decks and ranch-sliders    
dual cladding junctions    
deck/wall and roof/wall junctions    
 
 
Mdu Probe
