Middle East Industrial Flooring Conference 2009
17th March 2009, Courtyard Marriott, Dubai, UAE

The Middle East Industrial Flooring Conference brings together world leaders and experts in the construction of concrete industrial flooring under one roof.
The floor slab is arguably the most important part of a building. Not only a part of the structure, it is the platform on which all operations take place.
Designed and constructed correctly, the building owner should not even notice it is there. However, many concrete floors are beset with problems:
- poor uneven surface
- inadequate joint performance
- low abrasion resistance
- cracking
- to name but a few. Expensive remedials and repairs can rectify many of these defects. Designed and constructed right first time though, saves money and time.
The conference will offer the audience the opportunity to hear about how these areas can be addressed through the use of best practice and the latest thinking covering all elements of the delivery of high tolerance, high quality industrial floors. Each speaker presenting will offer a unique perspective as the day builds providing an insight into the areas of design, construction and the use of materials, and how this approach has benefited global building operators, developers and contractors alike.
The conference will start with design principles and the important elements involved in the delivery of high quality, high tolerance industrial floors. Building from this base, the day will cover each aspect of the construction process tackling areas such as the choice and use of materials, costs of using modern techniques, long term cost of maintenance ownership, the quality of the finished slab and clients perspective on the final result and what it means to them.
