Ned Glysson

Director of Research and Operations (Retired)

Ned Glysson started working for Elastizell with Leo Legatski and his father, Professor Legatski, back in the summer of 1972 while in high school. He went on to graduate from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1977 with a Bachelor of Science degree in biochemistry. He kept in contact with the Legatskis and assisted them with odd projects.


In 1980, he joined the Elastizell team full-time as the director of research and operations. During his 48 eight years of experience in the cellular concrete industry, he has been hands-on in the application, testing, manufacturing, development, research, and distribution of all facets of the industry. That has included chairing the American Concrete Institute committees 523 (Cellular Concrete) and 229 (Controlled Low Strength Material), serving as the technical chair for the National Roof Deck Contractors Association, and as a member of the Florida Roof Deck Association.


Ned retired in 2020.

Leo A. Legatski in Memoriam (1943-2017)

Former President and Owner

Leo A. Legatski, former president and owner of Elastizell, passed in July 2017. Raised in Ann Arbor, Leo graduated from the University of Michigan with a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering in 1966, a master's in civil engineering in 1967, and an MBA in business administration in 1968.


Leo served as president of Elastizell from 1971 until his passing in 2017, during which time he grew the cellular concrete market in lightweight flooring, commercial roof decks, and geotechnical fills. Leo served in various associations, including ACI, NRDCA, RCI, and FRDA. He was also a member of NRCA, ASCE, and many other industry associations.


Leo enjoyed spending time with Kathy, his wife of 19 years, gardening, traveling, skiing, tennis, and dancing. He greatly appreciated and supported the arts, especially the University of Michigan Musical Society and the Ann Arbor Summer Festival.


His guidance and knowledge are greatly missed.
