Episode 2 of ‘Ask The Panel Guys’ is now available to watch on MillerClapperton’s YouTube channel here.  Join us as president Zeke Miller navigates the intricacies of specifying Metal Composite Material (MCM).  Specific project requirements and the differences in material core may make the specification process challenging at times, but we have some helpful tips. 

How many core types are there and what type do you specify, when?  To learn which material core is right for your project, view this quick video.  Zeke offers our best recommendations for material core selection and goes into detail about which International Building Codes to pay attention to, and what the NFPA 285 rating means for you.

Call us nostalgic, but we aren’t the only ones paying homage to what were some of America’s greatest buildings.  From the original Penn Station to Midway Gardens, our “lost” buildings reflect the (sometimes misguided) desire to move forward.  It seems strange to see a street we know so well, but with a time-traveling intruder atop it.  An article from HomeAdvisors was recently shared with ArchDaily, showing what some of the country’s most recognizable streetscapes might look like if history had taken a different turn.  Click here to glimpse the buildings of our past.
