Join S-5! at METALCON for one of their informative education sessions on metal roofing.

S-5!’s Founder and Director of the Metal Roof Advisory Group, Rob Haddock presents the fundamentals of Understanding Metal Roofing: Parts I and II on October 12 and October 13 beginning at 8.30 a.m. each day. Often billed as "Metal Roofing 101" and known as the best “crash course” available for all in-industry personnel, it includes technical information presented in a common-sense fashion that makes the art and science of metal roofing clear, concise and understandable. Contractors, salespeople, architects, specifiers, roof consultants, engineers, building owners and maintenance staff will all benefit from attending.

Attendees are invited to stop by S-5!’s booth #419 to see first-hand its new CanDuit™ Clamp, which secures and support gas piping, condensate lines, electrical conduit and other round-shape objects to metal roofs, in combination with any S-5! clamp or bracket, including the GripperFix® utility mounting system. S-5!’s team will be on-hand to explain the features and benefits of this technology.

“Indianapolis is a great hub for the metal construction and manufacturing industries,” says Rob Haddock. “Where else can you meet industry colleagues all in one place!”
