Concrete Masonry Field Tolerances Webinar

Words: Mason ContractorsThe Mason Contractors Association of America (MCAA) will present “Concrete Masonry Field Tolerances” on Wednesday, May 9, 2018 at 10:00 AM CDT, sponsored by J. Construction Company.

Variations always exist between specified dimensions, and locations, and their as-built counterparts. TMS 602, Specification for Masonry Structures, gives tolerances for these variations intended to maintain life safety and assure structural performance.

Mason contractors registered for Masonry Certification will receive 1.00 credits in the Codes & Standards discipline upon completion of this course.
