The week of May 25th, the IAS Board of Directors visited QAI Laboratories at their Coquitlam, BC location. During the visit, IAS was given a presentation issue relating to a commercial lab and accreditations. They also spent some time in the lab witnessing fenestration, electrical and fire tests. Additionally, QAI had multiple representatives attend the BOABC’s Spring Education Conference at the RiverRock Casino Resort in Richmond, BC. This was great opportunity for our staff to network with the local building officials and gain valuable information during the conference sessions.
QAI is a proud member of IAS and the BOABC (Building Officials’ Association of British Columbia). We were happy to share the week with both groups, and have them visit our lab and meet a lot of our staff.
