Today's the day-
Masonry Madness 2018.
The lineup includes:
- MCAA's Masonry Skills Challege
- Showcasing masonry apprentices from across the country
- Spec Mix's Toughest Tender®
- The world's toughest tenders compete to see who can set up their Spec Mix Bricklayer 500 workstation, with a chance to take home $2,500 cash and prizes.
- MCAA's Fastest Trowel on the Block
- Each contestant's goal is to complete as much of a 30 foot long wall as possible, using 8"x8"x16" CMU and the provided mortar in a twenty-minute heat.
- Spec Mix Bricklayer 500®
- Each team consists of a mason and mason tender building a 26 foot 8 inch, double wythe brick wall. The most bricks laid in one hour and counted under the quality rules wins the event, winning over $100,0
