      ab: The article focuses on innovative building products designed to enhance safety and efficiency in construction. Oldcastle BuildingEnvelope's Bird Guard glass aims to reduce bird collisions while maintaining visibility, available in various sizes. Simpson Strong-Tie's new holdown (HDUE) and anchor bolt (SABR) combination improves the structural integrity of wood construction by minimizing screw usage and increasing load capacities. Additionally, CABN's Core offers a net zero mass-timber solution, providing prefabricated housing options with sustainable features, including solar panels and high-performance insulation. Vitro's BirdSmart glass, recognized by the American Bird Conservancy, also contributes to bird safety with its laser-etched design.
