Concrete 101

PACA wishes to thank our 2024 Corporate Sponsors for their generous support and commitment this year!

CONCRETE 101 is BACK!

This one-day class has not been held since 2018!

This year, it will be held in six convenient locations across the Commonwealth. This class will allow those new to the industry and those who wish to learn more about concrete mix designs an opportunity to design concrete mixes with hands-on guidance from our faculty of industry experts.
