ACI and the Las Vegas Chapter – ACI are proud to host the Concrete Convention and Exposition this fall at the Rio All-Suites Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA, October 14-18, 2018. The Las Vegas Chapter – ACI is excited to showcase the companies, projects, current events, and landmarks in their area. The convention program includes more than 40 technical and educational sessions that provide attendees with the opportunity to learn about concrete research, case studies, and best practices. By attending these convention sessions, attendees can earn Professional Development Hours (PDHs) and/or Continuing Education Units (CEUs). During convention week, more than 300 committees will meet to develop the codes, specifications, practices, and other resources necessary to keep up with the ever-changing world of concrete technology. Committee meetings are open to all registered convention attendees. The convention also provides several opportunities to build your professional network. Visit the exhibit hall to learn more about the products and services offered by exhibitors. Connect with attendees during one of the networking events like the Opening Reception, Concrete Mixer, and President’s Reception. To view the full list of convention events, visit aciconvention.org. October 16, 2018, is Contractors’ Day! This special day features sessions, a lunch presentation, and an evening networking event all created with contractors in mind. There will be a special presentation by Paul Dudzinski, Mortenson-McCarthy Joint Venture, about the construction of the newest addition to the Las Vegas skyline, the Las Vegas Stadium—future home of the NFL Raiders franchise. The local Las Vegas Chapter – ACI has put together two technical sessions geared towards contractors. The first session, “Contractors’ Day Session: Build, Implode, Repeat! – A History of Construction, Demolition, and Redevelopment in Las Vegas,” will provide an overview of growth patterns and development of the Las Vegas Valley. The second session, “Lighting the NEON in Las Vegas,” will address the NEON project, which is a design-build project to improve mobility and safety for the public travelling within the I-15 and the US 95 corridors in the Las Vegas, Nevada area. Subcontractors, general contractors, project managers, and concrete industry personnel will find great benefit in attending this eventful day. Students are invited to attend the Student Networking Event and Student Forum, participate in the Pervious Concrete Cylinder Competition, and learn how to be successful in their early career from Dr. Chip Espinoza at the Student Lunch. The ACI Convention creates a fun and educational environment with opportunities to engage with and establish connections with industry professionals and fellow young members. The ACI Convention is dedicated to bringing together the leaders in the concrete industry. These individuals work to improve the design, construction, maintenance, and repair of concrete projects. Conventions provide a forum for networking and education and an opportunity to provide input on the concrete industry’s codes, specifications, and guides.
