Follansbee® Steel to Exhibit at 2011 Federal Project Delivery Symposium

PRLog (Press Release) - Aug. 2, 2011 - Follansbee® Steel will exhibit at the Federal Project Delivery Symposium, August 9-10, at the Crystal Gateway Marriott in Arlington, VA.

Follansbee Steel will be featuring its range of highly-corrosion-resistant terne metal roofing and wall products, suitable for use in new and retrofit applications. The secret to Follansbee Steel’s durability lies in it’s patented ZT Alloy®––a specially formulated combination of zinc and tin that, to date, has enabled Follansbee Steel products to surpass 30,250 hours of ASTM salt spray testing with no red rust.

“The durability, longevity and sustainability of Follansbee Steel materials combined with their aesthetic appeal make them a stunning and functional addition to any building envelope,” explains Chris Welch, general sales manager for Follansbee. “Our materials are featured on many government buildings and we look forward to discussing the variety of benefits Follansbee Steel provides with attendees from the federal sector.”

The 2011 Federal Project Delivery Symposium is jointly hosted by the Design-Build Institute of America (DBIA) and the Society for American Military Engineers (SAME). The purpose of the event is to facilitate collaboration, education and information sharing to ensure enhanced professionalism in federal agency project delivery programs.
