Abstract

The article presents information on the CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2008 held in the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada on March 15, 2008. The construction industry's largest event of the year drew in a record 144,600 people. Nearly 2,200 suppliers brought equipment, software, tools and widgets as attendees kicked tires, drank beer and talked shop. Despite a softening economy and credit crunch, CONEXPO boomed. Heavy-duty trucks held their own in a convention centered largely around off-road machines.
