LIBERTYVILLE, IL, USA, August 31, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ -- About 8 million lightning strikes occur each day! Assessment of a building's risk to lightning enables building owners to be prepared - by installing a lightning protection system. Lightning protection systems are scientifically proven to mitigate the risks associated with a lightning strike to a building or structure. The Lightning Protection Institute (LPI) is a national organization leading the way to establish the highest standards in the design, installation, and inspection of lightning protection systems.

Each year, LPI Members submit projects that were successful due to the collaboration with an outside trade. Many different disciplines are involved throughout a project to ensure the proper installation and function of a lightning protection system: architects, engineers, electrical contractors, building enclosure consultants, facility managers, certified installers and more.

The LPI wants to acknowledge the importance of collaboration with individuals/firms to design and implement a lightning protection system. The “Most Innovative Design” awards showcase the result of this hard work and coordination on new and existing structures.

“The LPI 2023 Winners demonstrate the necessity to coordinate, design and utilize qualified lightning protection professionals during a new build or a renovation.” Tim Harger, LPI Executive Director. Each project utilized LPI certified contractors and was inspected by the LPI-IP, the most comprehensive 3rd party inspection program in the lightning protection industry.
