TMS to Host Seminar on 'Special Inspection of Structural Masonry Construction'

Words: Bronzella Cleveland

The Masonry Society (TMS) will present an intensive seminar on Special Inspection of Structural Masonry Construction on Thursday, Oct. 10, 2013 in Herndon, Va., at the National Concrete Masonry Association (NCMA) headquarters.

The Society says this is an excellent way to prepare for the ICC Special Masonry Inspector's Examination, to gain continuing education for current inspectors or designers, to learn what inspectors are looking for, and to find out what the Code requires related to inspection of masonry.

This seminar is presented with the support of the NCMA, the Mid-Atlantic Masonry Association (MAMA), and the Pennsylvania Concrete Masonry Association (PCMA). Early registration discounts are available until Sept. 18, 2013.

The next Inspection seminar is scheduled for Jan. 22, 2014 at World of Concrete/Masonry in Las Vegas, Nev.
