Failing masonry tests are reported by inspection firms to design engineers every day. There is little understanding by both the inspection firm and design engineer as to what exactly these tests represent. This is the result of misunderstood specifications and incorrectly applied quality assurance testing. Hours of unnecessary time are spent by the inspection firm to answer why, and by the design engineer to analyze the structure. This course will provide guidance on how to prevent these situations by discussing the properties of masonry components, inspection and testing requirements, and common testing errors. Throughout the course, recommendations will be provided to engineers on how to avoid potential pitfalls by proper detailing and specifying meaningful tests.
