SMACNA literally "wrote the book" on sheet metal, establishing the worldwide industry standards used today. Since 1943, the national organization of SMACNA helped to design the accepted criteria for workmanship and quality control in heating and air conditioning. These standards were based on the contractors’ own experience and definition of excellence.

Today, these original standards enjoy international acceptance and implementation by the design and construction communities. This vast technical library is available in manuals that provide a uniform method of comparing work specifications so that all bids are fair, honest and equitably reviewed.

The following is a list of SMACNA industry manuals available for purchase. If you are in the Northern California Area call us at 916 567-6637 to purchase any of these publications. If out of the area please go to www.smacna.org and visit National SMACNA's Publication Webpage.
