Sponsored by Telling Industries | Presented by Jeffrey M. Klaiman, PE
Webinar On-Demand
For a project to be successful, it takes more than good number crunching by an engineer. The engineer is only one part of a much larger team working together to design and construct the project. Sometimes, the lines of responsibility can be unclear, leading to delays, arguments and stress. Who is responsible for what? How is the burden of responsibility determined in cold-formed steel (CFS) design and construction practice? This webinar will introduce and share recent updates to the AISI Code of Standard Practice (COSP), discuss the contents of the COSP as it applies to a typical CFS project, and answer participant questions by way of an expert in both CFS design and CFS project management.
