Just as the Master-Builders of the past, today's champions of the Building Industry are dedicated to the art and science of building. They have a way of thinking about construction.

They have a way of thinking about the design concepts. They have a way of thinking about practicality. They have a way of thinking about ease of construction. They have a way of thinking about economy, conservation of materials, and conservation of labor. They think about protecting the environment, and they think about living in harmony with nature.

They think about what, why, when, where, who, how, and which, and they think about the weatherability, and the workability of the various aspects as subsystems of the Building. They think of the Energy Efficient Buiding as a System and they Network with leaders and the champions of the industry . And they think about creating a win-win situation for all concerned.

Theirs is the way of the Champions.
