RESEARCH

An Adhesive Anchor Installer is an individual who has demonstrated the ability to read, comprehend, and execute instructions to properly install adhesive anchors in concrete. The Adhesive Anchor Installer must also demonstrate possession of the knowledge to properly assess ambient conditions, concrete condition, materials, equipment, and tools for installing adhesive anchors and determine when it is appropriate to proceed with installation of an adhesive anchor or when additional guidance from a supervisor/foreman/project engineer is needed.

As technology advances it can make life easier although it can have a downside to its affects when raising cylinders to proper maturity.  This interactive presentation will review the stages for each cylinder through its life along with how new technology is helping.  As always new technology is not always helpful in the shaping a cylinder’s future so we will also explore how to handle failures, when maturity levels are not met, and the results are disappointing.  What corrections can be made to adjust behaviors for better results. 

Registration will begin at 2:30 pm.  The interactive presentation will run from 3:00 - 5:00 pm.  Food and beverage will be provided at the conclusion of the event for those who want to network and/or avoid traffic.
