Why are ventilation and drainage becoming so important in adhered masonry veneer walls? This webinar provides 7 key reasons why changes in codes and construction during the last decade have made traditional methods of adhered masonry construction much more likely to lead to wall failure. It also shows how to design and build high-quality adhered masonry walls that will perform throughout the building’s lifetime and help masons and designers create buildings they can be proud of.

Mason contractors registered for Masonry Certification will receive 1.00 credits in the Codes & Standards discipline upon completion of this course.
