Minnesota State University Moorhead required thorough third-party field testing for the curtainwall installation.

Third-party testing can lead to improved outcomes for several reasons:

  • Objectivity: Provides an unbiased assessment of materials and systems
  • Expertise: Offers specialized knowledge and experience in testing processes
  • Quality Assurance: Ensures that installations meet safety and quality standards
  • Credibility: Enhances the reliability of results for stakeholders
  • Compliance: Helps adhere to industry regulations and building codes
  • Risk Mitigation: Identifies potential issues early to reduce risks

Crowe Construction (St. Louis Park) contacted us about replacing the skylights at Artistry on 10th, a modern luxury apartment complex. The existing skylights were extremely leaky, aesthetically unappealing, had poor opacity, and failed to meet current-day structural requirements. They allowed minimal natural light to enter the space, provided little comfort or functionality, and were energy inefficient.
