The mission of the Structural Building Components Association (SBCA) Magazine is to increase the knowledge of and to promote the common interests of those engaged in manufacturing and distributing structural building components. Further, the SBCA Magazine strives to ensure growth, continuity and increased professionalism in our industry, and to be the information conduit by staying abreast of leading-edge issues. The magazine's editorial focus is geared toward the entire structural building component industry, which includes the membership of the Structural Building Components Association (SBCA). 

This issue contains lessons learned from SBCA’s recent tour of European component manufacturing operations, as well as guidance on designing floor trusses for guard support and the potential benefits of Design for Manufacturing & Assembly (DfMA). Read the full issue to discover practical tools, insights, and strategies component manufacturers can apply to strengthen operations, improve safety, and prepare for the future of the industry.
