Masonry Night School Begins with Masonry 101 Course
TMS began a new Masonry Night School with a 6 session Masonry 101 course which will provide a comprehensive introduction to masonry materials and concepts for those who need a fast-track course, especially new designers and specifiers.
Night School provides a more thorough review of masonry topics allowing attendees to progressively build their knowledge about masonry. Masonry 101 is intended as a full course to introduce those new to masonry to essential topics in a developing sequence, although attendees may participate in sessions individually if desired.
Continuing Education: 1 AIA LU / 1 PDH / 0.10 CEU each
These webinars were recorded October/November 2020 and can be viewed on-demand through the Masonry Education Hub at the links below.
