How to include SCAFCO products in your office master

Perform a master update. This enables you to see updates to the master text.
Go to Part 2 of the spec, which lists manufacturers and products.
Select SCAFCO from the list of manufacturers.
If a relevant SCAFCO product is found, select it from the list. Note that products will only appear here if they are a fit for your pre-determined criteria. A check mark will indicate that the product has been added to your spec.
Repeat the selection process for any other project/master files you routinely copy to generate project specs.

SCAFCO’s products are available in MasterSpec powered by Deltek Specpoint, the long time industry research and specification resource.

MasterSpec is the only product selection tool that provides the design professional unbiased, objective information on building products written by professional architects and engineers, and vetted by AIA-sponsored architectural and engineering review committees.

Buy American and Buy America

Buy American and
Buy America Letter

Within the realm of steel framing, the terms “Buy America and Buy American” connect to two prominent laws, which each champion the use of American-made products in public projects. The goal of these Acts is to promote/sponsor domestic sourcing, ensuring that goods and services for projects are primarily sourced from within the U.S.

In keeping with the goals of these Acts, SCAFCO Steel Stud Company, an American owned business, sources 100% of its steel supply from US Steel Mill locations, and all manufacturing takes place in the US. Both plant locations have steel on the ground and at the ready to meet all project requirements.
