Learn more about the finest roofing material available!

By Dani Sheehan. 

Natural slate is still available on the market and continues to elevate the roofing industry. Visit their booth at AIA24 this June to learn more about working with slate so you can start designing new projects with this centuries-old material. 

The National Slate Association (NSA) is excited to promote the use of natural slate within building projects at the American Institute of Architects Expo this June 5-8, 2024, in Washington D.C. With many synthetic imitation products calling themselves slate, it’s important to educate and increase awareness that natural slate, a metamorphic rock, is still available on the market. The NSA will be demonstrating cutting and working with slate, provide information on the newly released CAD drawings for slate details, and hand out technical bulletins to educate their audience. The more architects are aware of the tools that the NSA provides to specify and design with the finest roofing material available, the better off the industry will be. 

The AIA Conference on Architecture and Design is the nation’s leading expo that connects architectural decision makers looking for technical expertise, new products and project solutions. Network with like-minded individuals, share your knowledge, gain exposure and find out-of-the-box solutions to the industry’s most pressing issues. With over 140 scheduled seminars and 15 workshops, pack your schedule to learn about new topics, projects and trends that are redefining the industry.
