During the recent World of Concrete (WOC) show in Las Vegas, concrete specialist, and a contributing author to The Construction Specifier<\/em>, Ward Malisch, PhD, was honored with the Legacy Award.<\/p>\n

The award recognizes individuals who have made significant contributions to the concrete and masonry industries and have left a lasting mark on the show.<\/p>\n
