There are lots of building and construction industry publications out there, and seemingly more being introduced monthly. Although the list might appear to be endless between print and online media opportunities, I have compiled some of the publications that Duro-Last has been involved with to some degree in recent years because of their connection to the commercial roofing industry. Below is a small description of each – mostly taken from each magazine’s own materials – as well as a link to each website. We’ll include about half of the pubs in this post and the rest in a subsequent post.
The Magazine of the Western Architect and Specifier, is published six times per year. Written for the building professional concerned with design, specification, and application of building products in the West.

BOM is a magazine for the building owner/facility executive, providing coverage for building owners and facility executives who control the nation’s largest commercial and institutional properties.

Eco-Structure magazine delivers practical information and real-world examples of green building to architects, builders, interior designers, and others interested in the green-building industry. By focusing on particular green residential and commercial projects, as well as gaining “perspectives” from industry leaders, the publication strives to improve the built industry through education and design.
