TOUR - VULCAN MATERIALS QUARRY
Meet bus 9:15am Friday June 3, 2022.
Vulcan Materials Company is the nation’s largest producer of construction aggregates—primarily crushed stone, sand and gravel—and a major producer of aggregates-based construction materials, including asphalt and ready-mixed concrete. Our local Vulcan Materials Company rock quarry has been in operation over 70 years.

The 350 acre facility’s quarry pit is over 650 feet deep, one mile long, and more than a half-mile wide. It will be open for CHSA members the morning of June 3rd for a bus tour and observation of the blasting, crushing, screening, washing, and loading operations carried on at the quarry.

Sign up is required as spaces are limited to 25 people.

Registration is closed

Kennesaw State University and the College of Architecture and Construction Management are delighted to host the next CHSA conference June 2-4, 2022 on our historic Mid-Century campus in Marietta, GA. Founded in 1832, Marietta is the county seat and has a rich history of its own, but we will highlight the marble industry in North Georgia and the 19th century quarry owners who amassed huge fortunes here.

Keynote addresses by Brandon Clifford of MIT and Ece Erdogmus of Georgia Tech are scheduled, with a tour to a quarry and an experiential stone carving experience also planned.

Hosted by the Construction History Society of America and Kennesaw State University, this Biennial follows successful meetings held in College Park, MD (2018), Austin, TX (2016), Minneapolis MN (2014), Cambridge MA (2012), Philadelphia PA (2010), and Atlanta GA (2008).
