The Masonry Society, with the support of National Concrete Masonry Association (NCMA) and the Portland Cement Association (PCA), will be offering two intensive education review sessions, followed by ACI Certification Examinations for Masonry Field Testing Technicians (MFTT) and Masonry Laboratory Testing Technicians (MLTT).

The Education Review Sessions are excellent ways for new technicians, contractors, producers, and engineers to learn about masonry test procedures, their basis, and proper ways to sample and test masonry materials. They also serve as an excellent way for experienced testing technicians to prepare for the Certification Examinations. They will not however, be effective in teaching someone relatively new to masonry to be immediately ready to take the ACI Certification Examinations.

For the review sessions, instructors will cover typical tests for masonry units, mortar, grout, and assemblies, including ASTM C140, C780, C1019, and C1314, and other important procedures, as well as those addressed by the ACI Certification Examinations. After the classroom portion of the Review Sessions, a practical hands-on session will be offered so that attendees can observe, and in some cases, try their hands at specimen preparation and masonry testing.
