The formidable RSA Tower soars 745 feet into Mobile’s skyline and is recognized as the tallest building in Alabama. It takes a solid foundation to support such a grand structure and reliable technical expertise to ensure long-term success. That’s why you need the right mix and the right partner. GranCem® Slag Cement, part of the Envirocore™ family of eco-efficient products, was a main component in two critical concrete classes for the project – mass concrete in the mat foundation, high-strength columns and shear walls in the lower building floors. GranCem was also proportioned to be used in numerous other applications throughout the RSA Tower. Minimum strength requirements in both mixture classes were exceeded throughout the project. The mass foundation placement was smooth and completed in less than 23 hours, the internal temperatures in the 7’6” thick mat were within the specified limits, strength and performance criteria were accomplished.

Perfecting Progress™ 888.646.5246 Perfecting Progress™ Circle 753 industry perspective Suppliers Keep Innovating, So Should We All There’s no substitute for relentless innovation when it comes to busting out of a slump. Earlier this summer, at PCBC, I listened as some very experienced industry professionals looked back across the decades at earlier housing downturns. The tenor of the conversation was not gloom and doom. Rather, I was struck by their optimism. They were smiling and nodding as if to say, “This soon shall pass.” The group seemed particularly animated on the topic of house design and the potential that it has always held as a way to create opportunities, even today. Among the group was consultant John Martin of Martin & Associates, Newport Beach, Calif. One by one, he traced every builder-market recovery to the introduction of a specific new house-plan or design feature that seemed to capture the moment. When a plan begins selling well in one market, other builders take notice and adjust their offerings to follow suit. “I’d be willing to bet that is how it is going to happen this time,” said Martin. As you peruse this issue of Professional Builder magazine, I invite you to pay special attention to our list of the “101 Best New Products” of 2011. Hand-picked by our editors, many of these new products support Martin’s point — new solutions have the power of driving new sales. Case in point is the first new dishwasher I know of that is designed specifically for an outdoor kitchen, from Kalamazoo Outdoor Gourmet (page 23). Over the years, many types of kitchen appliances have migrated outdoors. Cooktops, refrigerators, ovens, and wine vaults are all among the appliances that are now designed to perform well when exposed to the elements. And with all that gear outside, it makes perfect sense that a dishwasher is also needed. No surprise then to hear that the product is selling incredibly well. The message for all of us is to keep innovating and pursuing new solutions for today’s home buyers. Experience tells us that there is no substitute for relentless innovation when it comes to busting out of a slump.

It’s well written and spot on. The point Scott made about “Ryan” shows how critical it is for leadership to understand that coaching operational excellence means so much more than brow beatings and the “What have you done for me lately?” attitude. It also drives home the point that you get what you measure. From my experience, to operate in a world (our company) where the executive team is not only on board, but leads the charge is both rewarding and stretching at the same time. Also, speaking from our experiences here, when we began measuring and then making decisions for trades based on the key elements in a total-cost evaluation model (our “value score card,” or VSC), we saw — and continue to see — our costs and quality improve. Trades know that we hang every decision on the VSC and focus on their specific weaknesses in an effort to improve their score. This has caused our entire trade base to improve in all areas of business. Thanks for the article. Matt Collins Keystone Custom Homes, Inc. Lancaster, Pa. CORRECTION In our 2011 Housing Giants rankings (Professional Builder, May 2011, page 34), the housing revenue for Simmons Homes should have been $40.5 million, not $400.5 million. The company should have ranked No. 147 on our list, not No. 26. The editors apologize for the error.

It offers a high R-value (R-3 at 0.5 inch; R-5.5 at 1 inch), which in turn reduces energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. The system also resists moisture intrusion and air infiltration; reduces installation time, labor, and material; and eliminates the need for wood structural panels and housewrap. Editors’ Comments: We continue to see innovation in the area of the building envelope. By combining multiple functions, builders and remodelers can save on labor and material and minimize waste, while offering enhanced weathertightness and energy efficiency.

Unlike traditional binders, which utilize a formaldehyde-based formulation, PureFiber is made with natural materials, offering a formaldehydefree product — and at no additional cost. The product uses a minimum of 50 percent recycled content (30 percent post-consumer) — the highest certified percentage in the fiberglass insulation industry — and features good product recovery, stiffness, strength, and softness. Editors’ Comments: Owen Corning is sinking millions into retrofitting its plants to produce EcoTouch in an effort to reduce the environmental impact of its insulation, and it’s not charging customers a penny more for the new product. Hats off to OC!

However when compared to the overall job, the small additional cost of stainless steel is inexpensive insurance against corrosion and unattractive staining that can occur with other fasteners. Stainless-steel fasteners are reliable and long lasting, and reduce costly callbacks, which means happier customers and repeat business. And by choosing Simpson Strong-Tie ® fasteners you receive our commitment to quality, performance and service. For outdoor construction, make sure your fastener is stainless steel. It’s worth it.
