Presenter: Chris Maskell FCITS - President NFCA
Title: Understanding and Preventing Floor Covering Failure
Chris will be discussing NFCA standards, available resources for all construction parties involved with floor covering installations, acceptable conditions, examples and explanations of floor covering problems.  He will also review testing requirements, product acclimation, planning concrete dry times and scope of work as it is detailed in the NFCA Floor Covering Reference Manual.

Presenter: Don Brletic - Regional Sales Manager, Western Canada - Ardex Americas
Title: Floor Flatness (FF)/ Floor Level (FL) and early phase concrete management systems
Don raises awareness of the disparity between Division 03 and Division 09 in the early phase of concrete construction management. Floor Flatness/ Floor Level requirements have a tremendous impact on the construction process as the flooring trade is one of the last trades on a project. At this late stage, strained budgets, cost over runs, remediation decisions and expensive recovery have a negative impact on the over all project which often leads to NFCA recommendations being compromised.

You will learn about:

• Industry resources available to you as floor coverers
• NFCA floor installation standards, inspections and problems we face in our industry
• NFCA-approved moisture testing methods and alkalinity testing.
  
• Floor flatness requirements/challenges, FF and FL values and why the problems keep repeating for the floor contractor.
