WEBINAR: DESIGN FOR RESILIENCE AND SUSTAINABILITY
Learn more437 WEBINAR: DESIGN FOR RESILIENCE AND SUSTAINABILITY 2023-04-12 12:00:00 2023-04-12 13:00:00 #f57921Resilient design of buildings in the twenty-first century is imperative given increased intensity and frequency of extreme adverse climatic events. Buildings must withstand environmental impacts to their exteriors while simultaneously protecting the occupants within and maintain operational functionality.
In this presentation we will discuss how to incorporate concrete construction systems as a sustainable building assembly option to meet the challenges of designing and building energy efficient and resilient structures that can withstand most, if not all natural disasters.
Architects, Engineers, General Contractors and Building Owners will gain a thorough understanding of concrete structural system benefits, including thermal envelope performance, design integration, construction processes, and renewable energy resources for consideration and implementation into overall building envelope design and construction.

Breakfast Meeting: Actions Moisture in Concrete Floor Slabs - What You Don't Know About Moisture in Concrete Floor Slabs Can Cost You
Learn more436 Breakfast Meeting: Actions Moisture in Concrete Floor Slabs - What You Don't Know About Moisture in Concrete Floor Slabs Can Cost You 2023-04-13 07:00:00 2023-04-13 09:30:00 #f57921Concrete slab and slab moisture experts Peter Craig and Scott Tarr unlock the science behind moisture-related slab and flooring problems.
In an entertaining fashion that is not only informative, but fun for the novice and expert alike, Peter and Scott bring to life several of those who shaped the laws and theories of science and forensics. Along with case studies, experts past and present address where moisture that leads to slab and flooring problems originates, how moisture moves and migrates, how moisture in and below a slab can cause problems, how moisture in a concrete floor slab should be tested, how to protect concrete slabs-on-ground from moisture, and what can be done to avoid, or correct a moisture-related flooring or coating problem.
Registration: 7:00 - 7:30 AM
Breakfast: 7:30 - 8:30 AM

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
