2017 RCI International Convention & Trade Show: Architectural Sheet Metal

Russell Raymond, Senior Building Science Consultant, will be co-presenting the first session of the RCI Architectural Sheet Metal course as an auxiliary seminar with the RCI Sheet Metal Task Force. The course, which Russell co-created with RCI colleagues, will become part of the regular RCI training curriculum beginning in 2017.

This will be an intermediate session related to architectural sheet metal flashing design, assessment, and detailing. These topics will specifically include material selection, attachment, joinery, expansion joint detailing, fabrication tolerances, drainage assembles, and penetration flashings. Within sheet metal joinery, the subjects of proper soldering techniques, proper solder repair procedures, as well as application of specific metal joinery types are developed fully. Through graphic and narrative illustrations, the presenters will communicate the fundamentals and more advanced topics suitable for architects, engineers, and building envelope consultant professionals.

The presentation will take place on Friday, March 17th.
