Steps

  1. Confirm the org history: the Interlocking Concrete Pavement Institute (ICPI) and National Concrete Masonry Association (NCMA) unified effective July 1, 2022 as 'ICPI-NCMA,' then rebranded to the Concrete Masonry & Hardscapes Association (CMHA) after a member vote at the February 2023 annual meeting.
  2. Use cmha.org (also published as masonryandhardscapes.org) as the current authoritative site — older bookmarks to standalone icpi.org or ncma.org content may redirect or be stale as of 2026.
  3. Locate segmental retaining wall (SRW) design resources under CMHA's technical resources section, since SRW guidance was historically an ICPI specialty now folded into the unified association's technical library.
  4. Check any downloaded SRW technical bulletin's publication date/logo to confirm it's post-unification CMHA-branded content rather than a legacy ICPI-only document.
  5. If searching third-party sites (e.g., state masonry associations), verify they've updated their CMHA references, since some regional pages still used the interim 'ICPI-NCMA' name into 2023-2024.
