Building Moisture Inspection
Course Fee includes: Instruction and course manual
BMI is an IICRC-approved certification that teaches professionals how to perform thorough moisture inspections of buildings — both inside and outside.
The course emphasizes understanding a building as a dynamic system: environment, design, materials, occupancy, history, and use all factor into moisture behavior.
The inspection methodology is scientific and systematic: gather information, perform walk-throughs, hypothesize, test, inspect, document findings, and report conclusions.
