NCMA Launches Online Community for Concrete Products

Words: Dan Kamys
NCMA has released its newest online tool for concrete masonry and hardscape products, the Concrete Products Community (CPC). The forum is designed to engage the users and decision makers behind the selection of CMU, SRW and manufactured stone systems. Users can choose to actively participate in discussions or simply monitor threads of interest.
Each time a post is created, the user gains points. The number of points the user has attained determines the ranking the user receives.  Each new user will begin as a "newbie."  After a specified number of posts, the user will become a "member." After another specified number of posts, the user will become an "advanced member."
Access the online community here.
