Importance of the Preconstruction Meeting
Learn more473 Importance of the Preconstruction Meeting 2023-12-14 07:30:00 2023-12-14 09:30:00 #262626Concrete pre-construction meetings are of prime importance in planning concrete construction work because many potential problems can be avoided at the right time – before the start of the pour when the cost impact is relatively low. This presentation will discuss a typical preconstruction checklist that allocates responsibilities and establishes procedures related to concrete construction. Subgrade preparation, forming, concrete mixture proportioning (mix design), ordering and scheduling, placing, consolidating, finishing, jointing, curing, testing and acceptance as well safety and environmental issues will be included.

Our Mission
The Minnesota Concrete Council (MCC) is dedicated to advancing education, technical practice, scientific investigation and research into cast-in-place construction by organizing the efforts of its members for a non-profit public service.
MCC was created to bring proven methods and new ideas together, to educate its members on how to improve the quality and use of concrete in structures, and to educate decision-makers on the benefits of quality concrete construction.
BECOME A MEMBER
MCC is proud of its growing and diverse membership. Our members represent the broadest based membership of any other local or regional organization in the cast-in-place concrete industry.
Membership represents design, construction and support industries associated with reinforced and post-tensioned concrete construction. MCC is a member-driven organization that derives its strength from both the diversity and involvement of its members. Take advantage of all MCC has to offer by joining today!
WHAT OUR MEMBERS SAY
Involvement with MCC has given me a direct connection to the best and brightest in Minnesota’s concrete industry, from concrete and cement suppliers, to concrete design experts, to concrete product suppliers.Thor Heimdahl, PE, SE – Sr. Structural Engineer at Life Time Architecture & Design
People don't know what they're missing. MCC has a tradition at its breakfast meetings that all attendees stand up and introduce themselves and tell everyone what they do. When you see the players in that room, you realize how important it is to be there. If you're in this industry, you need contacts and resources. And they're all in that room!Dean Stroschein – Trade Superintendent at Knutson Construction
Participating in MCC has given me the opportunity to connect with and learn about the perspectives of other individuals involved in concrete construction. As a design engineer, it has been immensely helpful to learn more about how suppliers, contractors, and testing agencies perform their duties.Doug Nagel - Associate, Senior Structural Engineer at VAA, LLC
