Dear TCA Members and Friends,

On behalf of the Tilt-Up Concrete Association’s Officers and Board of Directors, I am thrilled to invite you to join us for our upcoming Tilt-Up Convention and Expo in Phoenix on October 9–11, 2024, in the sun-drenched landscapes of Arizona. The TCA Convention and Expo has long been recognized as the premier event for tilt-up professionals, and this year is no exception. With an agenda packed full of expert-led sessions, hands-on demonstrations, and opportunities to connect with industry leaders, there is something for everyone—whether you are a seasoned veteran or new to tilt-up construction.

Our theme this year, “Legacy of Innovation: Celebrating Community in the Valley of the Sun,” serves as our guiding inspiration and celebrates a region known for its growth and resilience. Pushing the boundaries of what is possible with this versatile construction method, the convention will serve as a hub for sharing the best practices and success stories from across the industry. We will applaud the technological and aesthetic advancements that have characterized our businesses, and the enduring spirit of collaboration and connection that defines our community.

One of the highlights of our event will be the showcase of the latest technologies and innovations in our expansive expo hall. Here, you will have the opportunity to explore cutting-edge products, services, and solutions that are driving the future of tilt-up construction. This is your chance to engage directly with exhibitors and learn how their offerings can enhance your projects and improve your bottom line.

We are also proud to host a first-class awards gala during the convention, where we will celebrate the outstanding achievements of individuals and companies who have made significant contributions to the tilt-up industry. These awards not only recognize excellence but also inspire all of us to reach new heights in our work.

In addition to professional growth opportunities, the TCA Convention and Expo is also a time for camaraderie and connection. We have planned several social events where you can build lasting relationships with your peers. These moments of fellowship are what make our TCA community so special, and I encourage you to take full advantage of them.

I want to extend my deepest thanks to our sponsors, speakers, exhibitors, and volunteers whose hard work and dedication have made this event possible. Your commitment to the TCA and the tilt-up industry is truly inspiring.

As we prepare to gather amidst the beautiful vistas of Arizona, I am filled with excitement about what we will achieve together. The TCA Convention and Expo is more than just an event—it is a celebration of our shared passion for tilt-up construction and our collective vision for the future. I look forward to seeing you there, and to the many great experiences and opportunities that await us. 

Safe travels and see you in October!

Rick Galloway, president, Tilt-Up Concrete Association
