| There will be a monthly
meeting held on Thursday, July 17th 2008, at a location soon-to-be determined.
Information concerning the meeting, training topic and the
speaker/presenter will soon be made available.
Previous Meetings held in July - July 2003:
The July 2003 Meeting was held in Bolingbrook at the Heritage Knolls
subdivision where pre-cast model homes were being erected. One of the
homes is completed and two are currently under construction. The members
were invited to go through the buildings in order to learn more about
this new and popular construction method. During a previous meeting at
the Dukane plant the members were provided an opportunity to see the
fabrication of the pre-cast panels from the design to the finished
stage. Being able to come to the actual site allows code officials to
see how the panels are actually placed and how they are used in
different stages of construction.
This is the second time members have had the opportunity to visit this
particular area. The last time the completed home was the only one that
could be observed. Since the other two are in different phases of
construction it was thought that this would be a good learning tool for
our members to familiarize themselves with this type of construction.
The members thought the tours were very enlightening and educational.
