acc'S LATEST ISSUE

May June 2026

Warning! Warning! In this issue, we’re exploring traffic control and work zone evolution from the early days of the automobile, when contractors set up makeshift barricades to warn of danger, through the present, with the development of AI instructions.

Another focus is on celebrating Rummel Construction’s 30-year anniversary. During this period, the company has evolved from a two-person startup working out of a spare bedroom to one of the Southwest’s leading heavy civil contractors. “Starting our own company was always a dream,” Rick Rummel says.

For your convenience, copies of the magazine are available on the ACC website, at Books on Seventh Avenue in Phoenix.

About us

ABOUT US

Arizona Contractor & Community magazine has become a vital forum for the state’s building industry by providing critical information and exposure to companies in the field. Moreover, the publication has expanded beyond traditional construction, architecture, and real estate topics and has found an audience with those who have fresh ideas on adaptive reuse of historic buildings or making new developments more community-friendly and sustainable.

The magazine also looks frequently in the rearview mirror with articles that honor the many remarkable accomplishments of the building industry in Arizona. It may have been “just a job” back in the day, but these construction pioneers created the spectacular framework that still holds Arizona together. Anyone with an interest in history or engineering will enjoy the incredible legacy of roads, buildings, dams, and other infrastructure projects featured in the magazine.
