This one hour seminar focuses on IBC and ACI/MSJC Code provisions; specifically issues affecting design, construction, and budget. The seminar will familiarize attendees with the development process of the Masonry Society Joint Committee (MSJC) Building Code Requirements & Specification for Masonry Structures (TMS 402/ACI 530/ASCE 5 and MS 602/ACI 530.1/ ASCE 6) while highlighting major changes that were incorporated into 2013 MSJC. Considerations for correct grout and reinforcement placement, tolerances, grout cover, consolidation of grout and placement of anchor bolts are discussed. Inspection requirements for structural masonry are also presented.
