Theodore J. Weidner studies how buildings and campus facilities are maintained and managed over time, with a focus on comparing planned versus unplanned maintenance, predicting construction and maintenance costs, and analyzing large datasets from university facilities. His work aims to help institutions like universities plan capital spending and reduce deferred maintenance backlogs by understanding how building components and infrastructure systems depend on each other.
