ACI Concrete International has featured a Q&A section at the end of the magazine for years. Recently, some of the Q&As are originating (see titles in italics) from the ASCC Contractor Email Forum. There have been a great number of these articles of value to contractors. Because of that, I have listed specific Q&A of interest to contractors in the last five years. You can find the articles at https://www.concrete.org/publications/internationalconcreteabstractsportal.aspx?s=ci. Enjoy reading!
