A huge congratulations to all of the winners of the competitions and inductees into our Masonry Hall of Fame. Inside this issue, you will find all the major highlights from World of Concrete along with plenty of valuable content, including a moisture control article, a new GEN NXT article featuring a bricklayer apprentice April Ruiz, and an informative moisture control article to name a few.
