“Design Data, and the implementation of SDS/2, has bolstered Delta Structural Steel Services’ ability to elevate the quality of product that we offer our clientele. Prior to SDS/2, Delta was using another popular CAD program of which we were becoming increasingly disappointed. Our initial investment in SDS/2 began with two seats, and we have since grown to 17. Because of their outstanding product development and impeccable customer service, we feel Design Data has helped make Delta Structural Steel Services the multi-million dollar business we are today.” Paul Hemenway CM-BIM Estimating/Production Manager, Delta Structural Steel Services 1501 Old Cheney Rd., Lincoln, NE 68512 // 1-800-443-0782 // sds2.com

RE-ENGINEER YOUR THINKING. INTRODUCING USG STRUCTURAL PANELS.

From mezzanines and mid-rises to platforms and roof decks, USG Structural Panels provide the versatility of wood sheathing and are the only noncombustible structural cementitious panels certified by UL. When compared to poured concrete decks, USG Structural Panels can significantly reduce design loads, thus reducing overall building costs. usg.com/structural

INSTALLING ONLY THE BEST IN THIS GC’S HOME Jason Roxburgh and his wife, Emily, dreamed of building their own custom single-family home in one of Chicago’s unique up-and-coming neighborhoods. But they had a lot of unanswered questions. Where should we land? How are we going to build it? Can we manage the project ourselves, given we both have full-time jobs? These were just some of the unknown details as they pondered how to make their dream a reality. Luckily, Jason was a talented contractor in his own right. He knew, through his Rox Development Company, that he could act as General Contractor (GC) and manage the construction of the custom single-family home himself. He and Emily decided to take the plunge in 2015 and broke ground in early 2016. The Roxburgh home is located in the heart of Chicago’s revitalized West Bucktown neighborhood. The property consists of three floors, with a roof deck and a third-floor balcony, for a total square footage of 2,700—a sizeable footprint in ‘the concrete jungle’, surrounded by a mix of much older single-family homes, multi-unit rentals, and commercial and retail properties.

“I only want the best for our home,” said Roxburgh. “We’re intending on living here for a very long time, and the materials we’re using have to be the best—no compromises. That’s why we’re installing as many USG products as we can. The company has been around for more than a hundred years so they know what they’re doing.” Roxburgh and his sub-contractors have purchased nearly all the products they’re installing from the local L&W Supply, Zechman Supply, as well as ABC Supply Co. The USG-manufactured products include everything from structural panels, roofing and sheathing, to interior panels and finishes, backerboards, shower systems and flooring.

ROX DEVELOPMENT CUSTOM HOME USG Structural Solutions Project Profile

Every time a new sub-contractor or installer comes to my home, they say it’s a tank, given the USG Structural Panels I’ve used and the other quality USG products.

“Every time a new sub-contractor or installer comes to my home, they say it’s a tank, given the USG Structural Panels I’ve used and the other quality USG products. It makes me proud and happy to know that I’m building something with longevity for my wife and me.” Jason and Emily are aiming to complete their West Bucktown home in the Fall of 2016, just in time to enjoy it with family and friends over the holidays.

Masonry has a New Edge. And it’s called HALFEN FK4. Introducing a new adjustable shelf angle with a thermal break.

H

ALFEN FK4 brickwork supports transfer the dead load of the outer brick veneer to the building’s load-bearing structure: an effcient construction principle developed with the experience of over 80 years of lasting technology.

Adjustability HALFEN FK4 brickwork supports provide continuous height adjustment of +/- 13/8” which compensates for existing tolerances of the structure as well as installation inaccuracies of wall anchors.

Reduced Thermal Bridging The HALFEN FK4 brickwork supports are offset from the edge of slab allowing insulation to pass behind. Minimal contact with the building structure means reduced thermal bridging and lower energy loss.

Efficient Design As the demand for higher energy efficiency in commercial buildings continues to increase, the cavity between the brick veneer and the substrate is getting larger to allow for more insulation and air space. Along with this increased cavity size, the traditional masonry shelf angle, used to support the brick veneer at the slab edge, is also getting larger and subsequently heavier and more expensive to install. Architects & engineers are looking for a more efficient support solution. The HALFEN FK4 brickwork supports use a thinner, light weight shelf angle, eliminating brick notching while also allowing for a wider cavity.

Structural Efficiency The HALFEN FK4 brickwork supports allow efficient anchoring of brickwork facades in connection with HALFEN cast-in channels.

Quality By using HALFEN FK4 brickwork supports, you profit from an approved anchoring system, excellent adjustment options and a complete product program covering all aspects of brickwork facade. Many advantages with one result: HALFEN provides safety, reliability and efficiency for you and your customers.
