By a significant margin, members of the Light Gauge Steel Engineers Association have given approval to a proposal to become a council of the Steel Framing Alliance. With this approval, the LGSEA will serve as the steel framing industry's home for professional designers.
The new alignment eliminates duplicate programs, activities and administrative burdens for both the LGSEA and SFA, and creates increased opportunities for alliance members who are engineers and designers. The creation of this technical council under the umbrella of SFA will allow engineers to focus on developing research projects and producing technical literature that designers need.
