Brief

Custom fabrication for IAEE Expo! Expo! Comes down to scope discipline: knowing which structural elements need to be CNC-milled, which can be modular extrusion, and which the venue's freight elevator can actually accommodate.

We fabricate custom booth structures for IAEE Expo! Expo! From our local shop, which means every component is engineered for the specific load, sightline, and electrical demands of this show rather than pulled from a rental catalog.

Questions

Frequently asked questions about IAEE Expo! Expo!

Can the booth be reused at the next cycle of IAEE Expo! Expo!?

Yes, and we design for it. We also store the crates between cycles if you want.

What's a realistic budget for a custom 20x20 booth at IAEE Expo! Expo!?

A 20x20 custom fabrication at IAEE Expo! Expo! Typically runs $35K-$65K for the structure alone, depending on materials, hanging elements, and finish complexity.

How does Georgia World Congress Center's rigging policy affect what we can build?

Georgia World Congress Center has specific hanging-sign and rigging rules that we plan around — ceiling height limits, weight per anchor point, and required certified-rigger coordination. Our drawings reference those rules so the field install doesn't get held by the fire marshal.

Do you build the booth in Atlanta or ship it in?

We fabricate in our Atlanta shop.
