Nobody wants the road ahead to feel like an uphill battle 🚛⛰️ Clay Slocum shares how new truck climbing lanes on Hwy 58 will make a real difference, reducing congestion, improving safety, and keeping traffic flowing smoothly on steep grades. Smart design. Strong materials. Real results. #ConcreteInfrastructure #HighwaySafety #BuiltToLast

When space is tight, concrete rises to the challenge. Multi-family concrete buildings deliver unmatched strength, fire resistance, and resilience. Beyond that, come architectural opportunities for large openings, reduced floor-to-floor heights, and more – like the green roof on this building in San Diego. Concrete provides a strong foundation and much more above that! #UrbanDevelopment #ResilientConstruction #Multifamily

It’s refreshing to see cities building their roads and multi-use paths out of the same durable material that makes their bridge structures last! @TylerBodnarCNCA 's dog, Buster, will be even happier to walk on the cool concrete path once temperatures begin to rise again. 🦮🔥 ☀️ #coolpavement #abledoeffect #concretelasts

Let’s bring in the expert. David Imse, P.E. of Nevada Cement Company explains how cement quietly supports the infrastructure behind modern mining — every step of the way. #Cement #ModernMining #MiningInfrastructure

Gold. Silver. Lithium. Rare earths. Behind them all? Cement. The hidden hero of modern mining. 🦾⛏️ Stay tuned until tomorrow to hear from the expert himself, David Imse, P.E. from Nevada Cement #Gold #Silver #Mining #Cement

This project transforms a divided highway into a safer, stronger corridor by extending it with durable concrete built to last. Designed to reduce collisions and improve traffic flow, it creates a more secure route for families, commuters, and first responders. It’s an investment in infrastructure that protects lives and strengthens the community for generations. 🚧@CaltransDist6 #ResilientInfrastructure #BuildingSaferRoads

Can you really build a fire-resistant home? Yes — and homeowners deserve that confidence This PBS SoCal story shows how smarter design and non-combustible materials are helping communities rebuild safer after wildfire. Resilience is the future of housing in California. youtu.be/3VEu2Cw3r8Y?si… #BuildingWithResilience #FireResilientHomes #ConcreteConstruction

One year after California’s devastating wildfires, too many families are still struggling to rebuild. Despite delays with permits, insurance, and rising construction costs, some survivors are determined to prevent their homes from ever burning again. This powerful report reminds us why building with resilience matters now more than ever. Watch this feature with special attention to the interview with Karen Martinez at the beginning and end - and share. Our communities are counting on it. 🔗 bit.ly/4jsISjC #BuildingWithResilience #RebuildStronger #CaliforniaWildfires

As the holiday season wraps up and a new year begins, the CNCA team would like to wish you a Happy New Year. Here’s to a safe, strong, and resilient 2026.

This story is a powerful reminder of why building with resilience matters. Choosing fire-resistant, non-combustible building materials like concrete masonry helps protect lives, homes, and long-term community strength. Just as important, it offers hope — proof that we can build smarter, safer, and stronger. #BuildingWithResilience #BuildBackBetter #MasonryMatters #ResilientCommunitiesSee this Instagram video by @angelusblock instagram.com/reel/DR2cjs6jd…

Proud to share a major milestone for California’s cement industry. With EPDs now available from all cement producers statewide, California leads the way in providing transparent, LCA-based data that supports lower-carbon, resilient construction. This level of consistency and accountability is still rare nationally, and it positions our state for smarter, more sustainable infrastructure decisions.

You may be distracted by the beautiful fall colors framing this newly paved park road in Northern California, but a hidden gem lies beneath the surface. Cement treatment of the base with full-depth reclamation (FDR) will allow a smooth ride while leaf-gazing for years to come!  🍂🚗🛣️

In case you missed it… 🔥 @SpecNews1SoCal recently highlighted a powerful story where Palisades Fire survivors like Karen Martinez are rebuilding with Insulated Composite Concrete Forms (ICCF) — a fire-resistant, resilient concrete system. Choosing concrete isn’t just about rebuilding. It’s about rebuilding smarter with materials that can stand up to natural disasters. This is what #buildingwithresilience looks like.

The CNCA wishes you a Happy Thanksgiving! We have so much to be grateful for this year, and @TomTietzCNCA shares just a few of the reasons why.
