Oct 22nd, 2024 IN-PERSON Dinner Meeting

"Monitoring Moisture in Mass Timber"

Wow! What an amazing start the season last Dinner. It was great to see everyone after the summer break. And the topic was very enterntaining. Let's keep it rolling with another trending topic right now.

Presentation Description:

This presentation will teach the audience about the available technology for structural monitoring and how it can be utilized for quality assurance, risk mitigation, improved quality of life for occupants and support in architecture, engineering and construction, with a focus on Mass Timber applications. 1 LU

After attending our one hour session, attendees will be able to:

1. Describe how different types of structure monitoring technologies are implemented in various buildings - from moisture and leak detection to dynamic thermo performance monitoring (i.e. measured R-value).

2. Identify the immediate and long-term benefits of adopting monitoring systems for building envelopes during the construction commissioning process.

3. Identify the different variables in which a contractor can control for successful building enclosure commissioning.

4. Discuss potential future collaboration of innovative monitoring technologies for construction - specific to the building enclosure, energy consumption and air tightness, thus improving build quality and occupant’s health and safety.
