Join AIA Las Vegas and NOMA Nevada for an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look at the manufacturing lifecycle of advanced fenestration systems. This immersive site tour at Arcadia offers our AIA, Assoc. AIA, and Allied members a unique opportunity to bridge the gap between theoretical architectural design and practical manufacturing constraints. By exploring the data-driven processes behind modern building materials, we continue our shared mission to elevate our communities through rigorous design education and strategic industry partnerships.

Understanding the precise metrics of factory fabrication directly impacts the structural integrity, energy performance, and sustainability of your specifications. During this hands-on, one-hour guided tour, participants will observe the complete transformation of stock billet material into finished, warranted commercial door products. The curriculum covers the engineering behind both non-thermal and thermally broken aluminum swing, slider, and bi-folding systems.
