ASA 2021 Shotcrete Convention & Technology Conference - Rescheduled |
|
The impact of COVID-19 proves to be further reaching than anyone would have imagined six months ago. After much deliberation and feedback from our members, ASA’s Board of Directors decided to postpone the 2021 Shotcrete Convention & Technology Conference* until 2022. It became apparent that we would not be able to provide the same unique opportunity in 2021 to explore and showcase shotcrete applications and innovations to the standards previously associated with ASA Conventions.
This decision also acknowledges that the opportunity to network and connect with experts in the shotcrete industry contributes significantly to attendee participation. We look forward to providing these opportunities again when it becomes safer and more feasible to do so.
