When the LHC has finished Run III in late 2022, it will be upgraded to the HL-LHC which will increase the mean number of interactions per beam crossing from around 34.2 (ATLAS Run II average) to 200+ interactions per beam crossing. This large increase in luminosity will require significant upgrades to the various detectors on the future HL-LHC. One of the major upgrades to the ATLAS detector will be the replacement of its inner detector. This inner tracker(ITk) upgrade will involve two major subsystems, the Pixel and Strip Detectors. Iowa State University has been tasked with developing quality assurance and quality control procedures for the ITk Strip's barrel stave cores. This talk will focus on the thermal imaging methods that were developed to analyze stave cores in pre-production and production of the upgrade.
