Last week, the Construction Business Owner team attended the 2016 World of Concrete trade show in Las Vegas, Nevada. The show allows construction professionals to gain insight into cutting-edge technology and trends in the commercial concrete and masonry industries. This year, the trade show hosted more than 1,300 exhibitors and more than 55,000 registered attendees.
