Grouting Reinforced Masonry Structures - January 12, 2022 at 8:00 am
Presented by: Dan Siteman, EIT | IMI Director of Industry Development & Technical Service
The introduction of grout and reinforcement in structural masonry has expanded masonry’s performance characteristics allowing for taller heights and thinner profiles. Provisions of the code and standards have become more efficient over the past few cycles, yielding to higher productivity in the field. This presentation will cover basic grouting and reinforcement requirements for structural masonry. Considerations for correct grout and reinforcement placement, tolerances, grout cover, consolidation of grout and placement of anchor bolts are discussed. Click here for more details and to register.

BIM Masonry Designs in HIVE - January 25, 2022 at 1:00 pm
Presented by: Mark Swanson, AIA, CSI | IMI North Central Regional Director
Join NCMA to discover IMI’s Masonry Content Library in HIVE. Like bees foraging for honey, the AEC community forages a variety of sources for quality content to use in their Revit models. HIVE, a cloud-based content management system, makes it possible to ensure that content is easily accessible and findable for all project participants, even when working remotely. The IMI library is filled with quality masonry content, virtual mockups, and resource links to valuable masonry information that can help you communicate buildable designs to key stakeholders and craftworkers. Come learn how block producers can help get HIVE content into the hands of designers to enable them to create better digital models for concrete masonry. Register here.
