Standard Specifications

Click on this box if the Metal Building Manufacturer's Standard Specifications can be used.

If this box is not checked, submit, and clearly define the specifications that must be adhered to on this project.

Letter of Certification

Click on this box if a Letter of Certification is required.

UL-90 Roof Rating Letter

Click on this box if a UL 90 Roof Rating Letter is required.
If selected on a job with SSR, the Trim Kits will supply SSR Heavy Clips.

ICC (SSR Heavy Clips)

ICC is for Ordering Reference Only.
If ICC (SSR Heavy Clips) is selected for an SSR job, the Trim Kits will supply SSR Heavy Clips.

Pursuing LEED Status

If applicable, indicate if the building is to be LEED-certified.

FM Global Wind Class

This is for Ordering Reference Only, Design for FM is not automated and will require a quote/estimate.
If selected for a job with SSR, the Trim Kits will detail for FM and supply SSR Heavy Clips.

Domestic Steel

If applicable, enter if domestic steel is required for the project and list the requirements that must be met.

·        Projects with Domestic Steel Requirements must be custom quoted by the Region.  BBNA cannot comply if 100% Domestic Steel is required. Please send specific requirements (such as BAA, STAA, AIS, etc..) to the Region for review and to complete the custom quote process.

Weld Certificate Required

Select if a welding certificate is required. This may be indicated in the project specifications.

Canadian (CWB)

Required for all orders shipping to Canada. (CWB = Canadian Welding Bureau)

Seal Welded

Typical for hot-dipped galvanized parts. Select the class of galvanizing.

Class I - Details are those consisting of parts that are joined together by a full seal weld, or parts which are bolted together after galvanizing. This class represents the highest degree of corrosion protection attainable but requires more fabrication cost.

Class II - Details are those consisting of overlapping parts that are joined together by seal welding and have an overlapping area that is large enough to need venting following guidelines. A very high degree of corrosion protection is available with these details, although not quite equal to Class 1. Additional fabrication costs are about the same as Class I since the only difference is that Class I requires plugging vent holes and touching up the bare metal after galvanizing, whereas Class II does not.

Class III - Details do not include seal welding, which does not involve more fabrication effort than normally employed on a non-galvanized structure. Class III details enable the galvanizing to provide a degree of corrosion protection that meets or exceeds the protection provided by most industrial coatings.

LA City Weld Certification

Required for welded parts being erected in the city of Los Angeles, California.

Inspection of Welds by Outside Auditor

Select if an outside auditor is required. Typically indicated in project specifications.

Ultrasonic (NDT) Weld Test Internal

Select if required, typically indicated in project specifications. (NDT) = Non-Destructive Testing.

Ultrasonic (NDT) Weld Test External

Select if required, typically indicated in project specifications. (NDT) = Non-Destructive Testing.

Copy Slots to Like Frames

This will not be checked by default, Slots may be copied to all “Like” parts to reduce Frame Mark Numbers.
If selected, deleting or revising Slots in Frame Data may result in the Slot being re-detailed in the original copied location.

Web Slot Tolerance >= 6"
Note: There are additional limitations to what can be automatically copied.

Copy Holes to Like Frames

This will be checked by default, Holes may be copied to all “Like” parts to reduce Frame Mark Numbers.
If selected, deleting or revising Holes in Frame Data may result in the Hole being re-detailed in the original copied location.
Flange Hole Tolerance
 >= 2"

Web Hole Tolerance >= 6"

Note: There are additional limitations to what can be automatically copied.

Copy Welded Clips to Like Frames

This will be checked by default, Welded Clips may be copied to all “Like” parts to reduce Frame Mark Numbers.
If selected, deleting or revising Welded Clips in Frame Data may result in the Clip being re-detailed in the original copied location.
Flange Clip Tolerance
 >= 6"

Web Clip Tolerance >= 6"

Note: There are additional limitations to what can be automatically copied.

Consolidate Anchor Rod Details

This will be checked by default. This allows for all common details to be grouped with a naming convention that is descriptive enough to understand easily, but all dimensions still need to be read from the details page.

Pricing Type

This is used for Pricing levels, based on the Type.
Sample: Standard Building or Fast-Track

Frame/Bracing Primer Color

Select to change the Primer Color for all Frames, Bracing, Ship Loose Clips, and Flange Braces.

Secondary Primer Color

Select the Primer Color for all Secondary Zee's, Cee's.

Welded Secondary Primer Color

Select the Primer Color for all Secondary Jambs, Headers, Eave Purlins.

WideBay/Truss Purlin XT Primer Color

Select the Primer Color for roof secondary structural Truss.

Frame Start Mark

Input the starting mark number for the frames to start counting at.

This is usually used when Phasing a project, so the frames for each phase will have different frame numbers so they will not be confused on the jobsite.

·        1 – 999 can be entered.

·        Reset Frame Marks button must be pushed to update the Mark Numbers.

o   This can also be used to update and consolidate the mark numbers without changing the value in the input box.

Minimum Panel Cut [ ] Panels

Indicate the number of panels that need to be within an opening before they are cut (removed).
