Breakfast with the Experts

Words: Steven PomerantzLas Vegas never sleeps. So for those World of Concrete attendees who arrive early at the Las Vegas Convention Center, we’ launched “Breakfast with the Experts”. Attendees will have daily peer-to-peer opportunities each show morning to pose their questions on technical problems to leading concrete industry experts.

CONCRETE CONSTRUCTION & THE CONCRETE PRODUCER’s editorial staffs will moderate these pre-seminar morning sessions. A panel of invited WOC seminar speakers and other industry experts will share their concerns and offer solutions to common problems affecting the concrete repair and maintenance industry. We are attendee to submit questions and solicit answers suggested from the experts’ panel.

We have tried to organize our sessions to match up to each day’s World of Concrete Seminar topics. Topics will include: Concrete Basics — Mix Design, Working with Self-Consolidating Concrete, Selecting Crack Repair Materials, Concrete Basics — Weather Effects, How to expand joint spacing, Mitigating Concrete Shrinkage, Concrete Basics — Mix design, Selecting Sealers and Coatings, Waterproofing, Avoiding strength problems in hot and cold weather, Crack Repair, and Common Jobsite Testing Problems.

We are asking everyone to submit questions prior to WOC for review and preparation of answers. These questions can be submitted to through our magazines Linked-In and Facebook groups or directly to us at cceditor@hanleywood.com or tcpeditor@hanleywood.com.

Attendees may purchase continental breakfast passes on the WOC website or onsite based on availability for $25 per breakfast meeting. There is a discounted package fee of $80 for all 4 mornings - see code TWTFBE. To learn more, visit www.worldofconcrete.com.
