Independent Science & Engineering Support


Welcome to Applied Building Technology Group

At ABTG, we believe sound science and engineering are the foundation of building design, construction, and material innovation. It is the solid base on which successful building technology and product development can grow and benefit consumers with robust market competition. As a partnership between ARES Consulting Services and the Qualtim Family of Brands, ABTG’s goal is to foster straightforward, cost-effective pathways for innovation to get to market using accepted engineering practices and a keen knowledge of the science behind building codes.

In addition to developing and curating a variety of topical building science reports, educational programs, and resources for the building industry, ABTG is an ANSI-approved standards development organization (SDO) with an operating procedure for documenting consensus on ABTG-sponsored American National Standards.
