Following on from our exhilarating experience at ScaffChamp 2024 in Vilnius, Lithuania, scaffolding enthusiasts and professionals now have another exciting event to look forward to — this time across the pond.
The Scaffold & Access Industry Association (SAIA) will host its annual Scaffold Builders Competition on January 21, 2025, at the Las Vegas Convention Center.
The competition is set to take place during the renowned World of Concrete (WOC) trade show, adding a new layer of excitement to this major industry gathering. All building materials will be provided by AT-PAC as the event sponsor.
Taking inspiration from the thrilling showdown witnessed at ScaffChamp, where international teams raced against the clock to erect complex structures, the Las Vegas competition will bring together 20 top scaffolding teams from the U.S. and beyond.
These skilled teams, each comprising four erectors and a coach, will be judged on speed, precision, safety, and teamwork as they build and dismantle intricate scaffolding under time constraints.
For those wishing to participate, registration for the competition closes on November 29, 2024, so prospective teams are encouraged to secure their spot soon.
World of Concrete, held annually in Las Vegas, is the premier international event for the commercial concrete and masonry construction industries.
Featuring over 1,500 exhibiting companies, WOC draws thousands of industry professionals from around the globe, showcasing the latest innovations, equipment, tools, and materials in construction.
By hosting the Scaffold Builders Competition during WOC, SAIA offers scaffold builders a prominent platform and allows attendees from related fields to appreciate the skill, precision, and critical role of scaffolding in construction.
