SMACNA Technical Update: Big Changes Ahead

Eli Howard
SMACNA Executive Director of Technical Resources

The next two years will be pivotal for SMACNA’s Technical Department. Eli Howard, Executive Director of Technical Resources, will guide you through a range of significant projects—including updates to existing standards and the creation of new ones—aimed at helping members expand their market share across multiple industry sectors.

Eli will also highlight SMACNA’s recent testing programs for architectural sheet metal and duct construction, explaining the results and the direct benefits for our members.

In addition, he will discuss a series of technical education videos aimed at helping members grasp the fundamentals of standards such as the HVAC Duct Construction Standards and Round/Rectangular Industrial Duct Construction Standards.

Finally, we’ll explore innovative opportunities with artificial intelligence, discussing how AI could be applied to technical standards and how SMACNA can leverage it to better serve our members.

We look forward to seeing you in September!
