Producing the Stucco Look without Stucco Problems

Date: Tuesday, April 24, 2018

Time: 12 pm - 1 PM

Location: Carteret County Home Builders Association

105 N 10th St, Unit 3

FREE INFORMATIONAL SEMINAR

Lunch will be provided

This presentation will outline a method of installing a stucco wall system with all the typical looks of genuine stucco but without the down sides - such as cracking, wavy hand-troweled walls and unappealing joints running across the walls.

This wall system meets new air barrier codes and is not only attractive but structural and cost effective.

Presented by:

Greetings from the Wilmington-Cape Fear Home Builders Association!

Brent Johnson, a graduate student at East Carolina University studying Construction Management, is conducting a survey for his capstone research class and can use your help. His research seek to identify the advantages of construction management software and to identify potential reasons why residential contractors have not implemented such software. Once his research concludes in December, a copy of Brent's research findings will be distributed here in NCHBA's Monday Briefing.
