The Masonry Designers’ Guide – 2022 (MDG-2022) is a valuable reference for engineers, contractors, architects, inspectors, building code authorities, and educators. Initial chapters address materials, testing, quality assurance, quality control, and construction methods with reference to specific provisions of the 2022 TMS 402 Code and TMS 602 Specification. Subsequent chapters illustrate fundamental design concepts and demonstrate how to apply Code provisions to structural design of common masonry members. The MDG-2022 also includes discussion on masonry provisions in the 2024 International Building Code (IBC) and its examples are based on ASCE /SEI 7-22.
More than 150 design examples included discuss concrete and clay masonry, autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) masonry, prestressed masonry, glass unit masonry and more. The final three chapters of the book include 60+ comprehensive design examples for three common masonry buildings (Chapters 19-21).
Ordering either MDG-2022 hard copy option provides free digital access to the MDG-2022 when purchased in the same order (the discount will be applied after adding both items to your cart).

TMS 402/602-22 Building Code Requirements and Specification for Masonry Structures contains two standards and their commentaries: Building Code Requirements for Masonry Structures (TMS 402-22) and Specification for Masonry Structures (TMS 602-22). The Code (TMS 402) covers the design and construction of masonry structures while the Specification (TMS 602) is concerned with minimum construction requirements for masonry in structures.
The new 2022 edition has been updated throughout for new referenced standards, including ASCE/SEI 7-22 and numerous ASTM Standards. Other major changes to the TMS 402/602-22 include:
New, more rational, masonry veneer provisions
New Appendix D on composite reinforcement in masonry
Updated and refined provisions throughout, including compression-controlled section requirements
