IAS Training: Metal Building Systems Accreditation Requirements

This training course has been developed in order to provide a complete understanding of AC472 to people who operate a documented quality system and manage or conduct inspections of metal building systems under AC472.

IAS accredits the inspection programs of companies that design and fabricate custom engineered metal building systems. The accreditation is based on requirements in IAS Accreditation Criteria AC472, International Building Code® and related standards. The accreditation criteria covers inspections of metal building system elements that are essential for designing, specifying, building or approving metal building systems.

• Verification that approved manufacturers meet requirements as described in Chapter 17 of the IBC.
• The benchmark for companies that design and manufacture engineered metal building systems.
• Provides a level of confidence that buildings will be designed and manufactured according to code and specifications.
• Recognized by the Metal Building Manufacturers Association (MBMA) and International Code Council (ICC).
