The high cost of low maintenance

BD+C

The longer maintenance is deferred, the more the structure deteriorates. In addition to high repair costs, the structure is at risk of a structural failure that can lead to the demolition of the structure. Structural engineers are typically asked: “What are the reasons for deferring required maintenance for a structure?”

What About Mass Timber?

Natural Building

Depending on the engineering technique used, mass timber can be called cross-laminated timber (CLT), glued-laminated timber (GLT), nail-laminated timber (NLT) or dowel-laminated timber (DLT). Structural engineers are looking at embodied carbon to meet the requirements of a variety of green building standards and to meet sustainability goals.
