vice chairman - codes and standards committee at Metal Construction Association - Chicago, IL, US
The Metal Construction Association (MCA) is an organization of manufacturers and suppliers whose metal products are used in structures throughout the world. Since it was formed in 1983, MCA has focused on one key strategy: to promote the use of metal in the building envelope through marketing, education, and action on public policies that affect metal's use. MCA's marketing and technical activities create awareness of metal, its applications, and its benefits. MCA also works to eliminate barriers to metal's use in construction by supporting product performance testing, initiating research, and monitoring and responding to codes and regulations that affect metal.
