Over three days, attendees had the opportunity to immerse themselves in a wealth of educational content, networking opportunities, live demonstrations, tours, awards ceremonies, and entertainment. BBM Structural is a frontrunner in tilt-up construction, and we enjoyed being at this year’s event. Our booth was a focal point, showcasing our extensive expertise in tilt-up construction by having a video presentation highlighting the vast array of projects BBM has designed using the tilt-up building model.
