Presentation: AWI0641 - Architectural Wood Casework Standard

Presented by: Doug Hague

About this Course:

Design Professionals and Specifiers will learn how to use the new ANSI/AWI 0641-2019 Architectural Wood Casework Standard. Laboratory tested manufacturing methods and materials prove the structural performance of the casework being specified. This new standard also allows for proprietary manufacturing methods to be performance tested and specified while giving scientific validation & accountability to the woodworking industry as a whole.

A Visual Slide Show will illustrate the factors that affect the project. The program will reference the new ANSI/AWI 0641-2019 Architectural Wood Casework standard

Learning Objectives:

1. Identify differences between the previous AWS Ed 2 Casework Standard and the new ANSI/AWI Architectural Wood Casework 0641 Standard.
2. Understand the move from a more aesthetically based standard (AWS Ed 2) to a structural performance standard (0641) that includes the aesthetic qualities as well.
3. Become familiar with the impact of the ANSI & Performance Based Testing processes as they relate specifically to the 0641 Architectural Wood Casework Standard.
4. Learn how the specifier benefits by using the new ANSI/AWI 0641 Architectural Wood Casework Standard, resulting in time & product cost savings, while increasing the validity & accountability of the woodworking industry.

Learning Units will be provided: Yes (LU)
