In SGH's Applied Science & Research Center, our engineers and architects work side by side with material scientists, chemists, and petrographers to examine and understand concrete, stone, terra cotta, and other materials at a microscopic level and inform how structures work on a macro scale. Here, SGH Senior Principal Matthew Sherman describes how this collaboration goes beyond simply looking at the bottom line of a report or the result of a test to understand the causes of issues and recommend solutions to clients.
