Ron Blank & Associates, Inc.

From our humble beginnings that were sketched out on Ron Blank's mother's kitchen table, a vision was conceptualized for connecting architects and building product manufacturers in a way that had not been done before. Since that moment, RBA has strategically evolved into a multi-platformed suite of services for building product manufacturers and design professionals that aim to connect, educate and energize the professional goals of those who engage them.

    Whether installing on floors or walls, profiles provide a smooth, seamless transition when surface heights vary. Join us in this one-hour course as we explore how these small metal workhorses solve challenges such as edge protection and expansion joints, provide safety by increasing visibility and slip resistance, and increase aesthetics by adding a sophisticated finish. Our discussion will include ADA Considerations, examine green building certifications, and conclude with case studies. After this course, participants will be able to expound on in detail the variety of profile solutions that meet an array of transition challenges.


    Examine how flooring and wall profiles solve an array of architectural challenges like varying flooring and wall surfaces, edge protection and expansion joint movement, and safety concerns by intentionally creating seamless transitions that stand the test of time.
