Affecting more than 20 states, the scope of Hurricane Sandy, and the rebuilding efforts underway and yet to come, are difficult to imagine.
Robert A. Halteman, 83, quietly passed away at his home in Fishers, IN, on October 14, 2012.
If you knew Bob Halteman, founder of Wood Truss Systems, or ever interacted with him, you knew he wasn’t a salesman. Sure, his job (and the purpose of his company) was to sell fabrication equipment to the structural components industry, but he wasn’t in sales. He was in solutions.
Components play an integral role in the structural integrity of a building, but in this case, they’re used purely for aesthetics. For the remodel of a Summit Credit Union’s “Inspiration Branch,” removable façades were built inside the lobby to represent financial and life goals dealing with travel, education and home ownership.
Congratulations to Cascade Lumber Company, which celebrated its 60th anniversary in May.
It’s a beautiful sight—trusses being braced properly, of course. That’s what Bob Dayhoff of Shelter Systems Limited and Chair of SBCA’s E&T Committee saw while celebrating his 32nd wedding anniversary with his wife in Hawaii. “It was a welcome sight to see prefabricated trusses being used in construction and being safely erected and correctly braced to boot!” said Dayhoff.
When the new Bell Park Pavilion in Greenwood, AR, needed a roof, Capital Structures provided a solution with these glulam beam trusses.
