What Happens to Post-Frame Buildings with Rotted Posts?

Pole barns and other post-frame structures can eventually collapse without the necessary repairs for rotted posts. When a column decays, it can no longer support the weight of the building’s roof and walls. So, deterioration of the wood can lead to the column bending, bowing, cracking, and ultimately failing to hold up your building. Therefore, your structure can collapse in on itself if another columns lose the ability to support its weight. As a result, it is vitally important to get post-frame column repair in Berks County PA at the first sign of trouble. Here are some common signs that columns in your building are decayed:

  • You Notice Changes to the Outside of the Wood – If you see black spots, soft spots, or fungus growing on the wood, this is a sign that the column is starting to lose structural integrity.
  • You Notice Changes to the Inside of the Wood – Wood should not crumble or feel soft if you probe it with a screwdriver or similar type of tool. If that happens with some of your columns, they are deteriorating and in need of repair.
  • There Are Gaps or Cracks in the Wood – You should not be able to see crevices or cracks at the wood column, especially near the ground. Any columns with this type of problem will not last much longer.
  • You Notice that Your Building Smells – Buildings with frequent or permanent musty odors indicate that mold, mildew, or fungal growth has damaged wood columns.
  • You Can See Problem Pests – If you notice sawdust or termite activity around the base of your columns, then they are being eaten away by pests and require repair.
