What Does TAS Mean & Where Are They Used?
Miami TAS Stands for Testing Application Standards. They were developed for use in the HVHZ (Dade & Broward Counties, Florida) but are frequently approved for use elsewhere in Florida & the US as an alternative standard to similar ASTM protocols.
Where Do I Find The TAS Protocols?
TAS protocols are found in the Test Protocols Section of the applicable Florida Building Code. It’s a separate section of the code dedicated to the use of these standards. You can find the 2020 Florida Building Code TAS Protocols by clicking here.
