Soff-Cut is the industry leader in secondary operations aimed at preventing random cracking in concrete slabs. The team has been given the task of designing the next generation of random crack control, which will allow Soff-Cut to stay ahead of its competitors. The team has developed several conceptual designs to present to Soff-Cut, and has constructed a prototype for early-entry crack control to stay at the forefront of an ever growing industry.
