IFCEE 2024 opens on May 7th, and thousands are expected to descend upon the triennial Expo for four days of deep foundations industry enrichment. The event includes technical seminars, networking, and of course a massive equipment show. And this equipment show doesn't set-up itself. Therefore, crews are working long hours throughout the weekend to position their equipment displays and polish their outdoor booths.

One crew, consisting of pile driving pros from American Equipment & Fabricating and Dawson Construction Plant, shared some scenes from their set-up, early Friday morning, May 3rd. And as they tell us, they are preparing a display of "the Dawson innovative double-acting rapid blow rate central ram hydraulic HPH2500 impact hammer, a machine AEF introduced in North America 5 years ago, that continues to lead the marketplace."

The crew from Jinnings Equipment was also spotted on the fairgrounds, building the booth that will be visited by hundreds of deep foundation professionals in coming days.

Thanks to contributing photographer Joe Gelardi from AEF, we also have an aerial shot of the developing fairgrounds, as well as a panoramic photo in which an RTG rig from Bauer Equipment can be seen.

We wish you safe travels to IFCEE and look forward to seeing you May 7-10 at the Hyatt Regency Dallas!


 

UPDATE: Later in the show, an official IFCEE camera crew dropped by the American Equipment & Fabricating exhibit to find out how things were going. They spoke to company owner Charlie Booth and Marco who was representing PDCA member Motocut for which AE&F is the North American distributor. Click the photo to watch the video.
