Magnificent Metal Monday – What’s on the Inside?

METAL BUILDING INSULATION | Credit: Therm-All

With so much focus on the metal used on the exterior of a building, “what’s on the inside” is equally as important, especially as it relates to energy efficiency, fire safety, and more. Therm-All has been at the forefront of innovative metal building insulation solutions since 1981, offering a full line of custom fiberglass and rigid insulation systems, reflective insulation, door and window systems, vapor retarders, OSHA-compliant safety systems, metal building accessories, insulation retrofit and more.

METALCON LIVE! MCA AND THE MCM ALLIANCE PRESENTS: CLADDING SAFETY IN LIGHT OF GLOBAL FIRES – TOMORROW, 4/20 AT 1:00 PM

ELIGIBLE FOR 1 AIA LU HSW– REGISTER NOW

Join us tomorrow as this panel of experts takes a “deep dive” into why Engineering Evaluations (EE) could be an acceptable alternative to running an NFPA 285 wall assembly test. This course will show how this evaluation process can be used as a viable path to evaluate wall assemblies to the requirements of the International Building Code. The baseline information required and the “layer-by-layer” analysis used will be reviewed by a qualified fire professional to demonstrate that a specific wall assembly meets the intent of the code. This approach should make the expected performance of the wall assembly clear to the local authority having jurisdiction (AHJ) so that an informed decision can be made on the acceptance of the proposed wall assembly.
