On-Demand In this session, we will learn the fundamentals of all successful AE firms and provide the basis for making well-grounded business decisions. We will learn how firms can transition from being professionals providing services, to highly tuned businesses that can identify the needs of the marketplace and create services and products that are appropriately priced and yield consistent and greater profits.

On-Demand These factors include the different types of metal roof and wall systems, materials used in manufacturing, fastener types as well as environmental issues such as saltwater and wind speed. Structural issues including building framing, roof slope, curving, perforation and more are addressed. Finally, a review of cost assessment and how it’s affected by sustainability needs, installation concerns and jobsite best practices rounds out this course.

On-Demand As weather gets more extreme, roofs are being asked to withstand even more: manage more water, defend against larger hail and stay on during high winds. During this webinar, you will learn about the new wind requirements in ASCE 2022, best practices for designing for very severe hail, and ways to manage water from large rain events.

On-Demand Program content identifies key aspects of factory fabrication — including tested performance and warranty coverage— and contrasts these with characteristics of alternatives produced in the field. Participants develop strategies for specifying glazing infill panels that support energy efficiency, safety, code compliance, and design goals.

On-Demand This course discusses the history and characteristics of high-density cement fiber cladding. It then illustrates how a fully engineered, multi-layered system integrates an air and water-resistive barrier, a robust sub-construction made from aluminum or steel brackets and profiles, mineral wool thermal insulation board, and durable high-density fiber cement. Images illustrate how the fiber cement panels can be custom-fabricated into various shapes, offering design versatility.
