BEC Houston Presents:
COMPOSITE SUB FRAMING AND ITS CONTRIBUTION TO SUSTAINABILITY


This presentation will introduce the learner to the latest methods of continuous insulation (CI) through the use of composite sub framing systems. After becoming acclimated with this type of system and its history, the learner will review how composite sub framing is contributing to the health, safety and welfare of the project participants and the eventual occupants.
