Inspection of Historic Wood Structures

In cooperation with the USDA Forest Products Laboratory, the University of Minnesota Duluth has developed a web-based community of practice to strengthen technology transfer efforts for condition assessment inspections of historic wood structures. Further, these organizations have also been conducting solid research into the development, application and implementation of new inspection techniques and methods. With funding from the USDA Forest Service Wood Education and Resource Center, these project cooperators have developed this community of practice to share and transfer information related to inspection of historic wood structures. Within this Community you will find valuable information to plan, conduct and implement inspections of historic wood structures. During the next 12 months, we will create and provide web- based seminars and short courses, video seaming, chat rooms, e-newsletters, a marketplace, and archives. An Adobe PDF of this webinar has been created.
