Start GENE with a welcome from the publisher of USGlass magazine and an update of what you can expect over the next two days. Submerge yourself into industry matters and jump-start your day diving into all that Glass Expo Northeast™ has to offer.
This session provides recent industry-specific research and provides up-to-date information on the region’s economic standing. Using data from KMR’s research division, Debra Levy will forecast what the region can expect in the commercial and residential glass and metal industries and what to anticipate as a result of market shifts. Learn what these shifts mean for current and future business moves you may be considering. Come prepared with your questions. Particular emphasis will be on the Northeast region.
Delegated design of glazing systems requires understanding architectural intent, building structural movement, manufactured system limitations, design loads, and methods. Architects, engineers, and contractors should be aware of essential key design requirements and know what to look for and approve delegated design submittals for curtainwall, storefront, and other glazing systems. “We will be taking an in-depth look at one of the most misunderstood and overlooked areas in glazing system design,” says Stewart.
Incidents of falling glass from exterior balcony railings in highrise condominiums have resulted in new standards and building code requirements that address the post-breakage performance of glass. As a result, many railing specifications are calling for laminated glass to provide safety from falling glass. This presentation examines the safety concerns around the glass in railing systems and the new building code requirements that address the use of these systems. The results of impact testing will be presented. In addition, the need to specify the proper glass and verify the compatibility of sealants and grouts will be discussed.
With the recent impacts of Hurricane Ida and Superstorm Sandy, this course takes on critical importance. The course content translates the destructive power of a hurricane into specific failure modes and then outlines action taken over the last 15 years to eliminate the sources of failure. The result is more cost-effective, hurricane-resistant commercial buildings. Performance attributes of various types of commercial glazing systems will be reviewed.
Do you want to be bulletproof at work and confident in your decisions? If so, you do not want to miss this prime opportunity to learn strategic and quality skills in the workplace and beyond. Whether you are looking to influence others, seize opportunities, establish rapport, negotiate business deals or detect deception, these helpful guidelines are designed to be used as tools to hire, retain and lead the best. You will want a front-row seat for this award-winning seminar as Janine teaches you essential methodologies on reading and using body language to your advantage.

The COVID-19 crisis has affected all businesses in America, and the glass and metal industries are no exception. This insightful session has two parts. Part One will discuss the lessons of companies that have successfully navigated through the crisis, what they have learned, and the new programs/procedures they have put in place. Part Two talks about the implications of the crisis for the glass and metal industries in the future—in technology, new products, changes in types of construction, human resources, and more.
Session Moderated by: Debra Levy, Publisher of USGlass magazine and its online news service, USGNN™.
Structured to help the glass and glazing world to think inside the jambs, this session will cover the advantages of using economical hardware, to include pricing, availability, warranty and quality. The contract estimating portion of the presentation will focus on the ease of obtaining a formal proposal by providing very simple information, as well as, what you receive in regards to proposal layout, submittal packages and shipping labels.
