Structures Specialists — Why we CAN have nice things

Airman 1st Class Laura Garza, a structures apprentice assigned to the 380th Expeditionary Civil Engineer Squadron, peels back the laminate floors in a residential living building, July 27, 2022, at Al Dhafra Air Base, United Arab Emirates. The high heat and humidity of the UAE can cause damage to wood structures over time. Structural specialists inspect for and repair damaged flooring by removing compromised plywood and installing a more resilient form board.
