Ontario, Calif. — IAPMO® Uniform Evaluation Services (UES) is pleased to announce that ITW CCNA was recently granted UES Evaluation Report ER-891.
ER-891 references the 2021, 2018, 2015, 2012, and 2009 International Residential Code® (IRC), the 2022 California Building Code (CBC), the 2022 California Residential Code (CRC), the 2023 Florida Building Code, Building (FBC—Building), the 2023 Florida Building Code, Residential (FBC—Residential), the 2023 Los Angeles Building Code (LABC), the 2023 Los Angeles Residential Code (LARC), and the 2013 Abu Dhabi International Building Code (ADIBC).
ER-891 states that the ITW CCNA Red Head C6+ Adhesive Anchoring System in Masonry satisfies applicable code requirements. This allows for the specification of the ITW CCNA Red Head C6+ Adhesive Anchoring System by architects, contractors, specifiers, and designers, and approval of installations by code officials. ER-891 also provides code officials with a concise summary of the system’s attributes and documentation of code compliance.
Products recognized with a UES Evaluation Report have successfully undergone evaluation based on applicable requirements within the Uniform Family of Codes and the International Family of Codes, as well as codes published by other entities. UES staff thoroughly examined ITW CCNA’s installation information, test reports, calculations, quality control methods, and other materials to determine whether the products are code compliant.
The UES program is built upon IAPMO’s more than 80 years of experience in evaluating products for code compliance. Accredited by the ANSI National Accreditation Board (ANAB), the program operates under ISO/IEC 17065, “General Requirements for Bodies Operating Product Certification Systems.”
UES offers a full range of recognition opportunities, including recognition for the applicable national model codes, as well as Florida, California, the city of Los Angeles, and various other state and local codes. By combining all these recognitions into one concise report prepared by an internationally recognized product certification body, the UES program reduces costs and increases value.
“ITW CCNA can now refer UES ER-891 to code officials and users seeking information on the ITW CCNA Red Head C6+ Adhesive Anchoring System,” Vice President of UES Technical Operations Brian Gerber said. “Establishing code compliance can be complex, and UES uses logical, transparent methods to document a product’s conformance to the codes. The resulting evaluation report, ER-891, summarizes the information gathered into a concise, organized resource that helps clear the path to acceptance.”
