Magnificent Metal Monday – METALCON’S TOTAL EXPERIENCE

METALCON’S SHOW FLOOR IS THE “TOTAL EXPERIENCE” – TAKE A TOUR

METALCON offers attendees a true one-of-a-kind show experience by creating an “all-in-one” space allowing for meaningful interactions and immersive experiences. After its successful redesign in 2018, the METALCON show floor is planned with efficiency in mind. Once you start your day on the show floor, you stay there. You won’t waste time running around looking for different rooms — you’ll find everything in one place including larger directional aisles for ease of navigation. From exhibits to theaters to special interest pavilions, METALCON has it all. The new pavilions are designed to give you a more immersive experience into the following specialty areas of design and building: IMPs, CONTECH, and solar solutions.

Metal made the Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health located in Las Vegas one of the most remarkable metal construction projects in recent history, draped and wrapped with a “mountainous metal-clad skin, faced in shingled panels and punctured with a grid of windows,” states Architect Magazine. The amazing building was designed by none other than Frank Gehry, who has truly “reinvented the art of metal cladding.” Now 92, Gehry has work spanning decades, perhaps most known for the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao in Spain.

WHY AN IMP ROOF?

• 

• 

When IMPs first emerged as a building product in the 1960s they were predominantly used as an exterior wall assembly. Throughout the last 60 years, the materials and production methods have advanced considerably. According to the Metal Construction Association, “Insulated Metal Panel Roofs are premier building products on the leading edge of innovation.” The far reaching benefits include: high performance, sustainable building envelope, design flexibility, single component, and speed of build. The question isn’t “why an IMP roof” … the question is “why not.”

Join METALCONLive! and MCA TOMORROW as they present, The Advantages of an IMP Roof , by Greg Lusty, Vice President of Sales at All Weather Insulated Panels. Greg will provide a review of insulated metal roof panel systems in terms of their performance characteristics, profiles, and testing/approval requirements; along with the design and installation considerations that will help you be successful.
