Webinar - "Single Component Metal Design Best Practices"
Date & Time: Wednesday, June 17 at 12pm.
Presenter:  Kenny McMann, with MORIN, A Kingspan Group Company
As architects push the boundaries of design, the need for a material that offers the greatest amount of flexibility is required. From the vast number of aesthetic options, superior durability, cost efficiencies, and ease of installation in all weather conditions, single-component metal panel systems offer such flexibility. 

At the end of this program participants will be able to:
  1. Identify the various performance goals and market sectors for architectural single-compnent metal (SCM) panels
  2. Recall the components and construction of a SCM panel wall
  3. Describe each finish options maintenance requirements, performance and durability
  4. List the custom fabrication and accessory options available in the manufacturing process of SCM panels
  5. Design an energy and resource efficient wall section using an insulated metal panel (IMP) back-up wall and SCM panels
