Build With Strength Director, Building Innovations, Justin McCain partnered with Insulated Concrete Form (ICF) manufacturer, Nudura at Houston Build Expo USA. The expo was held from June 28 - 30, at the city's NRG Convention Center and was attended by approximately 6,000 professionals from the construction, development and architectural community. Nudura and NRMCA sponsored a booth which promoted the use of concrete through building with ICFs and engaged with hundreds of attendees during the event, McCain said.
There were several largescale developers who were very interested in building with concrete and moving away from timber-framed construction methods. The Build With Strength team also received much interest in utilizing the Concrete Design Center which helps select the right concrete structural systems for buildings that would have otherwise been constructed with other building materials.
