Abstract
A common problem found in surveys of domestic residential properties — in particular for clients with large housing stocks such as local authorities — is deflection in timber purlins and beams. Timber's performance changes with long-term loading and variations in humidity and moisture. Changing the building environment can have a dramatic effect on timber components, but sometimes things are not as straightforward as first thought. This paper considers how the environment of a building can affect the performance of timber members.
