The Flooring Inspectors Education Guild hosted 52 students Sept. 11-14 for a Wood Inspection Techniques seminar in Charleston, S.C.
Topics of discussion included tracking moisture into and out of the building envelope, methods to control moisture migration, using computers to monitor moisture and heat, how improper moisture control can lead to mold, and checking in engineered wood.
The class was taught by Dr. Phil Mitchell and Dr. Dave Tilotta of North Carolina State University, along with consultant Howard Brickman. For a complete rundown of the seminar, see Howard's latest blog post, "Carolina(s) On My Mind."
After the seminar, Tucker said he is working to hold seminars again in the future. Anyone interested in attending a seminar can reach Tucker at [email protected] or (864) 238-5507.
