Sponsored by Huber Engineered Woods and recorded live in their booth.
From plastic building blocks to smart circuit breakers and peel-and stick-underlayment, there was a lot of new, interesting stuff to see. But that’s not all the Builders’ Show has to offer. Steve Baczek touches on how important those direct relationships with manufacturers are as an architect, Emily Mottram shares her take on the difficulties of calculating the true environmental costs of building, and Nick Robertson, one of Huber’s resident technical experts, shares what builders and homeowners have questions about, including an intriguing equine conundrum.
