Course Description
This one-hour presentation will discuss how evaluation reports and certification programs have been used, and when they are appropriate and not appropriate for steel framing products. Architects, engineers and building officials will learn when they should request evaluation reports, and contractors will learn how to respond when evaluation reports are requested or specified. Handouts will include template submittal letters for both structural and nonstructural standard products when evaluation reports are requested but not required.
Learning objectives
