Reminder: Free QA/QC Requirements webinar

Words: Mason ContractorsThis is your last chance to register for the Mason Contractors Association of America’s (MCAA) free QA/QC Requirements for Masonry Construction on Wednesday, December 19, 2012 at 10:00 AM CST.

Construction of masonry structures involves the combination of manufactured or natural units (stone, clay brick, or CMU) with a job site produced binder (mortar) to create a variety of shapes and textures. The combination of pre- manufactured units and job-site produced binders also creates a great potential for construction problems. This presentation will review the basics of quality masonry construction, and quality control methods. Specific issues to be addressed include: hot/cold weather construction, materials testing, reinforcement placement, efflorescence control, control joint detailing, veneer details and flashing.

At the end of the course, the participants will:
  • Be familiar with several forms of NDE
  • Be able to understand the basic theory of the methods
  • Be able to know what conditions the methods can be used to verify
  • Be able to identify what types of results/information can and cannot be determined through NDE
Mason contractors registered for Masonry Certification will receive 1.00 credit in the codes and standards discipline upon completion of this course.

This webinar is free to all attendees. Register for QA/QC Requirements for Masonry Construction.
