ABOUT US

It was a dark and stormy night…

 

In 1992 Hurricane Andrew acted as a catalyst for a series of changes to building codes in the state of Florida. This event exposed a series of weaknesses in the building code requirements as well as enforcement problems that culminated in millions of dollars of damage to structures in South Florida.

 

After the hurricane it was discovered that structures that had significant roof damage were those that were most negatively affected by such events. This led to modification of the South Florida Building Code to strengthen the roof structure and installation requirements and for a time put Miami-Dade County in a preeminent position in the State of Florida regarding changes to the building codes to prevent hurricane damage to structures and the testing of building materials and products.

 

Other hurricanes in the 1990’s and this decade led to the State of Florida to adopt one building code for the entire State of Florida that incorporated many of the changes that had been made to the South Florida Building code.

On a parallel to these events Eduard Badiu was being educated as a civil engineer in his native country of Romania and came to the Florida to pursue his career in civil engineering. Coming to Florida when he did allowed Mr. Badiu to observe and understand the changes that were being made in the building codes.

 

While working for Soilprobe Engineering & testing Inc. Mr. Badiu specialized in inspection consulting and provided structural reviews and inspections for developers and contractors as structures were being built. This work allowed Mr. Badiu to observe the effects of amendments in the building codes in real life situations.

 

In 2003 with 10 years of experience and after receiving an engineering license from the State of Florida, Mr. Badiu started CeBB Engineering and Testing, Inc. in part to address changes that were being made in the building codes that require independent testing of roof structures and roof material installations.
