The Reinforced Concrete Masonry Construction Inspector’s Handbook covers all aspects of reinforced concrete masonry construction and inspection. The materials are based on Code requirements and practical experience. The 10th edition incorporates the requirements of the 2018 International Building Code; the 2016 Building Code Requirements for Masonry Structures (TMS 402-16) and Specification for Masonry Structures (TMS 602-16). This nationally recognized publication is the primary source of information for understanding the material required for the Structural Masonry Inspection Certification Exam administered by ICC. Every inspectors, designer, and contractors should have a copy of this important publication.
This publication is no longer in stock and will not be reprinted.
TMS 402/602-16 Building Code Requirements and Specification for Masonry Structures contains two standards and their commentaries: Building Code Requirements for Masonry Structures (TMS 402-16) and Specification for Masonry Structures (TMS 602-16). The Standards are written as legal documents so that they may be adopted by reference in building codes.
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 commentaries present background details, Committee considerations, and research data used to develop the standards. The commentaries are not mandatory and are for information of the user only. The 2018 IBC (International Building Code) references the 2016 TMS 402 and TMS 602 for the design and construction of structural masonry, veneer, and glass unit masonry, and it uses the quality assurance provisions from TMS 602 for masonry inspection.
The standards were previously developed through the Masonry Standards Joint Committee (MSJC) and were formerly designated as TMS 402/ACI 530/ASCE 5 and TMS 602/ACI 530.1/ASCE 6.
Available online with improved features (copy, print, highlight, annotate, and more) plus more multi-user flexibility through Masonry Standards Online.
