The Building Code Requirements and Specification for Masonry Structures includes two essential standards and their commentaries: TMS 402-16 (Building Code Requirements) and TMS 602-16 (Specification for Masonry Structures).
TMS 402 covers the design and construction of masonry structures, while TMS 602 outlines minimum construction requirements. The accompanying commentaries explain background details, committee considerations, and research used in developing the standards.
These standards are referenced in the 2018 International Building Code (IBC) for structural masonry, veneer, and glass unit masonry, and include the quality assurance provisions from TMS 602.
Originally developed through the Masonry Standards Joint Committee (MSJC), these standards were formerly designated as TMS 402/ACI 530/ASCE 5 and TMS 602/ACI 530.1/ASCE 6.

Masonry Basics, 2nd Edition has been completely revised and updated. It serves as an introduction to masonry design and construction. The various component materials, the ways in which the components are assembled to form the masonry construction, and the weather-resistance and structural implications of the various types of masonry assemblies are described. Highlights of quality assurance and quality control issues are addressed and a few of the most common types of potential deficiencies in masonry construction are described so they can be avoided. Finally, a glossary of masonry terms used in the text is provided.
Masonry Basics can serve as a beginning text for architects, engineers, contractors, building officials, inspectors, building owners, or anyone else who wants to learn the basics of this industry.
