Building Facades

February 2, 2022

Assess, Repair, or Replace?

The facade is one of the most vital elements of a building. It provides energy efficiency, insulation, and ventilation; shields the building against natural elements; and adds character to the appearance of the structure. There are many causes of façade depreciation, including age, weather, quality of material, building movement, and lack of maintenance. Becht Engineering BT, Inc. provide a full range of engineering services including knowledge and experience in façade investigations, corrections, and local law inspections. Our team investigates exterior siding systems of all types for specific analysis of defects, installation techniques, and replacement or repair alternatives. These improvements have a dramatic effect on appearance, comfort level of occupants, and energy consumption.
