World of Concrete 2008January 21st -25th, 2008.
Las Vegas, NV
Again this year, World of Concrete lived up to expectations. With almost 1 million square feet of floor space, 90,000+ attendees, and over 1800 exhibitors, how could it not? World of Concrete is, without question, the largest and most influential convention for the construction industry. On a side note, according to the Las Vegas Visitors Bureau, WOC is the third largest convention in the world, following the tech gadgets and medical conventions.
Since WOC is the place to be and be seen, it would behoove the helical pier industry to make a good showing. And make a good showing they did. It seemed as though every time I turned around there was another booth occupied by yet another helical pier company.
Helical Pier Exhibitors at WOC were:
Chance/Atlas
Grip-Tite
Earth Contact Products
ETI/Fasteel
Helical Anchors Inc.
Helical Pier Systems
Maclean-Dixie
Magnum Piering
Pier Tech Systems
Brackett Foundations
Not bad for the World of "Concrete"! Each exhibitor reported great results. It was hard enough just for each one to find a couple of spare minutes to talk to me.
Hopefully, we will see you at World of Concrete 2009. February 2nd-6th, 2009. ![]()
