This information is the result of the many system engineering research projects sponsored by Building America. The researchers made diligent efforts to see that the information is accurate and complete, but buildings are complicated systems. Each research project involved a complex interplay of operating context, specialized knowledge requirements, and assumptions. Highly qualified designers and engineers worked to ensure compliance with applicable laws, codes, and safety standards for buildings. The results of their research are presented here for informational purposes only. The sponsors of this Web site and the researchers who submitted this information cannot guarantee its accuracy or its fitness for any particular purpose.
