ABAA Contractor Webinar: A Little Light Reading: A Contractor’s Guide to Specifications
September 25 @ 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM EDT
We are excited to invite you to an exclusive webinar presented by Amy Baker, a seasoned Registered Architect and Specifications Consultant with over 20 years of experience in the commercial construction industry.
Construction specifications are assembled by design professionals to communicate product information, qualitative standards, and procedural requirements to the construction team. The resulting project manual, a contract document which can be several hundreds of pages long, takes time to break down and understand.
This presentation is designed to help contractors effectively navigate construction specifications and understand where to find specific information on processes, materials, and quality expectations.
What You’ll Learn:
- Terminology & Navigation: Master the basic terminology used in specifications and discover where to find crucial information.
- Quality Air Barrier Installations: Learn how specifications communicate ABAA QAP requirements and procedures for whole building air tightness testing.
- Requesting Clarifications: Understand the proper procedures for requesting clarification when drawings or specifications are unclear or conflicting.
- Coordination Across Trades: Identify key specification language that requires coordination between trades and understand its implications for your work.
