Johns Hopkins Hospital has completed a massive $1.1 billion expansion project that included the construction of two 12-story towers. SMACNA contractor United Sheet Metal Inc. (USM), Capitol Heights, Md., used four million pounds of galvanized and stainless steel sheet metal for the HVAC systems.
The Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors’ National Association (SMACNA) announced that it has joined the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Energy Efficiency Standardization Coordination Collaborative (EESCC), a cross-sector, neutral forum for coordinating efforts focusing on energy efficiency standardization.
It was the winter of 1991 when Jeff Chase made a motion to divert Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors’ National Association (SMACNA) advertising funds to U.S. troops in Desert Storm and their families at home. He had no idea that the program he started would last for 21 years.
Strategic thinking, technical issues, and employee compensation were a few of the issues tackled in the break-out sessions during the 69th Annual Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors’ National Association (SMACNA) Convention.
Former SMACNA president Richard J. Cramer Sr., of Holly, Mich., was inducted into the Michigan Construction Hall of Fame, Oct. 25, 2012, located at Ferris State University’s Granger Center for Construction and HVACR.
