At the annual meeting, MBMA announced Dale Nelson of Roof Hugger Inc. as the winner of the 2014 Innovation Award. His project submission is to undertake side-by-side performance testing, using applicable code referenced standards of metal roofing and TPO roofing, to see which product stands up better. The end results will provide objective information for anyone needing a new roof. This project now moves on to MBMA’s Technical Committee.

MBMA board members, associate members and committee members put in countless hours of service throughout the year as they work to promote metal building systems. They do this by working through established MBMA committees in a variety of areas, including MBMA's sustainability objectives and addressing code concerns; partnering with the International Accreditation Service to ensure a smoothly functioning accreditation process; tackling timely and significant insurance matters and safety issues; and directing continued research and testing at some of the nation’s leading research universities and laboratories.
