Value

Architectural Testing worked with the Steel Stud Manufacturers Association to develop the SSMA Code Compliance Certification Programs for structural and nonstructural steel framing as comprehensive, rigorous resources which provide independent verification of the quality of cold-formed steel framing. Architectural Testing is accredited as an independent inspection agency to the requirements of ISO 17020, and is also accredited as an independent testing laboratory in accordance with ISO 17025. Verification of the manufacturer’s certification is supported with unannounced manufacturing facility audits, and independent random sampling and testing of certified products for compliance to the programs requirements.
