In order to support mason contractors that are interested in BIM, two guides have been developed. Both Volume I and Volume II of the BIM Deliverables Guide for Masonry Contractors provide tips and ideas to becoming BIM-savvy and making contractor businesses more productive.
These Guides are written by mason contractors FOR mason contractors. Included are case studies and examples of how other mason contractors have used BIM to help their business.
Formed in 1977, The Masonry Society (TMS) is an educational, scientific, and technical society dedicated to the advancement of scientific, engineering, architectural, and construction knowledge of masonry.
The Society is a not-for-profit, membership driven organization that gathers, correlates, and disseminates information for the improvement of the design, construction, manufacture, use, and maintenance of masonry products and structures.
As part of these efforts, TMS develops standards, guides, and other resources, educates through seminars, workshops, conferences, and collaborates with the construction industry, design profession and other leaders desiring to see a better and more resilient built environment.
