4. Learn minimum masonry inspection requirements.
Course Title: Tips to Optimize Structural Masonry – NY0695

Speakers: Keith Lashway, PE


The focus of the seminar is to give participants a clearer understanding of the interrelationship in masonry buildings between materials, architecture, engineering and construction. Seemingly simple decisions can dramatically affect the building and understanding options available in materials, design and construction methods can result in more efficient and cost effective structures. Taught using a “Tips” format, the seminar will highlight areas where proper understanding of masonry - from architectural and engineering design to materials to construction methods - can result in better engineered and completed buildings. Ways to use existing materials more effectively, explanations of the effect of one selection on another, discussions of new materials and current code and specification provisions will be included.

The Learning Objectives for the session:

1. Develop a clearer understanding of the interrelationship in masonry building between materials, architecture, engineering and construction
2. Learn how simple decisions can dramatically affect the building.
3. Understand options available in materials, design and construction methods can result in more efficient and cost-effective structures.
4. Develop a proper understanding of masonry as a system and how it results in completed buildings that are more cost effective and efficient.
