A renovation to the exterior of this plant, intended to improve interior conditions, had resulted in an inadvertent capturing of interior moisture release from the aged wallboard drying equipment.  Initial considerations to replace the drying equipment or change the main building envelope were both considered expensive and counter productive.

Our Client wished to properly contain and manage moisture generated as part of the manufacturing process, improve manufacturing tolerances for the product curing cycle, and improve the working environment for staff.  The Client also wanted to ensure continuous production during changes.

Morrison Hershfield was able to assess the issues within the context of the client’s overall objectives, while treating the plant operations as integrated systems, such that a workable solution was achieved within the Client’s budget.
