The AIA Consensus Construction Forecast does not see any end in sight to the sluggish U.S. nonresidential buildings sector.

Beyond R-Value: Where Thermal Bridging Really Happens

A building envelope is only as efficient as its most vulnerable connection. Insulated metal panels (IMPs) provide exceptional thermal performance and reliable R values across their surface—but energy efficiency can still falter where panels meet...

Insulated Metal Panels (IMPs) are precision-engineered building systems that deliver strength, aesthetics, and superior thermal efficiency in a single component. Each panel represents a significant investment in your project’s performance and longevity – an investment that can be compromised by...

Every Google search, Netflix stream, and TikTok video passes through a data center that consumes as much electricity as a small city. Collectively, data centers devour around 1.5 percent of global electricity – equivalent to powering the entire state of Florida – and that figure is climbing rapidly...

In the world of science, precision is crucial. Whether it’s a pharmaceutical lab, a semiconductor cleanroom, or a research facility studying the next breakthrough, the physical environment plays a direct role in the success of the work inside.

When hurricanes, tropical storms, or inland wind events strike, building performance is put to the ultimate test. In coastal and high-wind zones, construction decisions are not just about aesthetics, they’re about survival, safety, and regulatory compliance.

In today’s evolving construction industry, roofing isn’t just about keeping the rain out — it’s about long-term energy performance, climate resilience, and design flexibility.

Insulated metal panels (IMPs) are designed to deliver exceptional thermal efficiency, structural integrity, and aesthetic appeal for decades. But even the most durable wall or roof system isn’t completely maintenance-free.

The expectations for multi-family housing have changed. Today’s developers and residents aren’t just looking for shelter, they’re seeking sustainability, style, and efficiency.

“Today’s renters care about more than just square footage—they care about sustainability. From smart thermostats to leak...
