WELCOME NEW Members!

Rachel has been kicked to spammer haven. She listed herself from Delaware, had a Chinese time zone and the IP was coming from the Philippines.
Bye Rachel.
Poor Rachel. She was just here to sell us some wonderful diet pills.

Just trying to feed her family...now all they have to eat are diet pills.

Where are you currently at?
 
Yes, I am using VPN service. It helps me open foreign websites.

You may want to find a more appropriate area of this website to post your questions in. You are talking more about a utility service than building codes. Start a new topic so more people see it. Your post is buried in this long one.
 
To All Members:

With a few changes we should see an increase in new members. It would be great to have new members post and tell us just what they do and give us the opportunity to welcome them into the forum. Please leave comments below.

I'm a new member, an automatic door professional and a code and product compliance manager. I hope to be able to contribute and learn from other professionals.
 
I'm familiar with that guru. And it looks like you have been a member for 10 years. As Spock would say, Fascinating !

Hi everyone, I’m new to this forum and not sure if this is the right area of the site for a commercial canopy company.

I am the GM at Vestis Systems in Spokane, formerly F.O. Berg Company and providing commercial awning and shading systems since 1883. Vestis Systems designs and manufactures custom and “off the shelf” commercial canopy and awning solutions for businesses in need of low lead times and competitive costs, saving you time and money.

Can anyone point me to some friendly GCs, project managers and sub contractors to mingle with?

Welcome
This is not really a site to promote products
 
Hey, I'm also new here. I didn't notice that here is a special welcome thread, so I already started to chat :) Nice to meet you! Hello from Virginia!
