Photo Guidelines
Photo Documentation Suggestions
There are two objectives in documenting the work you perform:
Documenting that the decking you will be repairing meets the Class Action Standard demonstrated by the metal deck sample or "Coupon"

We always recommend a general overview to give a perspective of the days work. In most cases this will be sufficient to document that painting was required. Avoid taking pictures from too far away. If you tear off more than 30 sqs, take additional photos.

Take a picture of areas requiring overlay or remove and replace with the "Coupon" on the deck. If you do not have a coupon, do not start the project.
Documenting the quantity of repairs you have completed

A photo of the same area as your overview is a good way to document the quantity of area painted. Do not take pictures of painting in progress, only completed work.

A photo of each area of deckwork is recommended. Make sure you take photos of completed work (not in-progress) before covering it up with insulation.
Tips: 1.Take photos with your back to the sun.
2. If you are forced to take photos at night, take lighted close-ups with the coupon on the deck.
3. Whenever possible, take photos facing the direction of the flues.
4. Set your camera to around 640x480 or lower to achieve file size of 200 kb or lower
