We edit all submissions for clarity, grammar and organization (following standard AP guidelines). Any accompanying images or artwork need to be high-resolution images (at least 1920 x 1200 pixels, 300 dpi). Captions/descriptions should accompany photos/graphics, including any photo credit/copyright.
Our purpose is to educate, not promote. With that in mind, please omit specific product mentions and only discuss product innovations in terms of generic technological advances that impact the user. Additionally, we cannot run any content that appears to be advocating or opposing a specific building product or technology during (or immediately leading up to) a code development cycle where code changes are under consideration. When citing statistics, facts, reports and sources please include a link for reader reference.
