Episode 79 - The Engineering of Building Science
This Episode will be the first part of our Louisiana Pacific series put together when Zack and Max visited LP at their Tennessee headquarters and tried to learn everything we could manage in a few short days. This first conversation is with Neil Freidberg, a building scientist at LP, and an absolute expert in building science and moisture and thermal control in a structure. We start with the intro of what exactly a building scientist does for the other Structural Engineers that can only guess, and move into some of the detailing items and questions we should be addressing in every design. Enjoy, and feel free to write in if you have any questions for us or Neil.

We are talking with Scott Johnson who made the transition from consulting structural engineer to a whole host of tasks and skills at LP. We get to hear all about fire deaign, where exactly the responsibilty falls, and how structural engineers can make better more efficient buildings with even a little understanding in this area. As akways, reach out to us on the email below with any questions at all, If we dont know the answer we will happily pass it along to Scott.
