The Masonry Society’s “Guide for Condition Assessment of Masonry Facades” is a living document that describes methodology for inspection and assessment of masonry facades. The Guide is useful to building owners, architects, engineers, and building officials as a valuable tool for masonry façade evaluations related to façade ordinances, restoration and repairs, maintenance programs, and due diligence reports. Starting with a discussion of the factors that affect masonry performance, the Guide continues through the process of masonry façade inspection and assessment with a flow chart and outline of the various tasks and elements of a façade assessment. The Appendix includes special attention on the topics of “Distress Common to Terra Cotta Facades” and “Assessment Techniques of In-Place Masonry”.

This program is intended for any Owner, Architect, Engineer or Contractor who is assessing/purchasing/stabilizing/renovating an existing (especially an historic) building with masonry wall (including load-bearing/non-load-bearing/veneers) such as brick. stone or concrete masonry units. This program will specifically provide attendees with the fundamental skills necessary to understand how the following impact existing masonry structures:
- Differing Architectural Approaches to Historical Restorations
- Structural Functions of Masonry Walls
- Building Code Evaluations of Existing Buildings
- Investigation Techniques and Standards
- Mortar Repointing and Crack Repair Techniques
- Retrofit Veneer Anchor System
- Lateral Restraint Anchors and Bracing Systems
This program was presented on April, 12, 2013 at the University of Texas – Brownsville Campus.

During this five-part recorded webinar series, masonry experts and Committee leaders review the new standards TMS 402-22 Building Code Requirements for Masonry Structures and TMS 602 Specification for Masonry Structures and changes made since the 2016 edition. These standards will form the basis for masonry design provisions in the 2024 International Building Code and other model building codes and include some major new provisions that include a new appendix on masonry partition walls reinforced with Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) reinforcement, completely revised anchored and adhered veneer provisions, and enhancements throughout the standards.
Topics covered in this series include:
- Overview of Changes in TMS 402/602-22 and Review of the Specification for Masonry Structures
- Major Structural Design Changes in TMS 402/602-22
- Seismic/Limit States Design per TMS 402/602-22
- Masonry Veneer Requirement Changes in TMS 402/602-22, A Whole New Chapter
- Using the New Appendix D on Composite Reinforcement in Masonry
