RESEARCH + DEVELOPMENT The team at STA continually strive to improve what we do and the solutions we offer our clients. In a number of applications, LGSF has significant benefits over other building materials like timber which require testing to demonstrate these benefits. Great examples we have seen recently is Fire Resistance in Australia and earthquake shake testing done in NZ. While these tests are great for the LGSF industry generally, there are numerous localised R&D that can be done to benefit your business. The results are valuable and create a real point of difference for your business. STA has partnered with LGSF companies to scope, test and certify a number of elements and applications with great success. Some of the areas we can provide R&D are below.
