Base wage and fringe: $40.45 + $19.41

The wage is the taxable hourly rate. The other lines are what Washington law calls "usual benefits": contributions to health, pension, vacation and holiday, apprenticeship and similar plans. A contractor that doesn't provide a benefit pays its value as wages instead (RCW 39.12.010).

Base wage (taxable)$40.45
Health and welfare$8.80
Pension$8.10
Vacation and holiday$1.02
Training$0.95
Other benefits$0.54
Total straight-time hourly rate$59.86

Set from: collective bargaining agreement, Inland Northwest Associated General Contractors of America, Inc And Washington & Northern Idaho District Council of Laborers. Where a county has a collective bargaining agreement, L&I adopts its wage and benefits; with more than one, the higher rate prevails. Otherwise L&I uses wage surveys (RCW 39.12.015).

Davis-Bacon brick tender rates in these counties

The counties share L&I's rates, but not always the same federal wage determination. When a contract requires both the state rate and the Davis-Bacon rate, paying the higher of the two meets both. The contract documents say which apply.
