In our semi-annual publication,

utilizing concrete masonry construction. If you have

Established in the 1950s, the Northwest Concrete Masonry Association
(NWCMA)works to support its original goal of
industry advancement by striving for more innovative and
productive ways to design, deliver, and install concrete
masonry wall systems. NWCMA also works on behalf of
the concrete masonry industry and designers in the Pacific
Northwest to educate architects and engineers on the benefits
of using concrete masonry in the design of their buildings.
Affiliation with NWCMA offers both professional
growth and business opportunities. It provides its members
and affiliates with comprehensive, dynamic services, which
include expert technical assistance, education, marketing,
and research and development.
This concrete masonry wall can comply with the Oregon & Washington state energy codes in many cases. Integral-insulated cmu can still meet the new code requirements.
