Description
[Session 1] This course explores beam sizing and selection, and uses the principles learned to demonstrate why engineered lumber performs better than conventional lumber. Of course, no home inspection course would be complete without a review of common beam and engineered wood failures and how to fix them, so there will be plenty of field photos and solutions.[Session 2] We are going to talk about a few things in relation to chimneys. What a chimney is and isn’t, what the standard of care is when inspecting a chimney and what sort of defects might commonly be found in chimneys.
