Masonry Construction, Feb, 2005 by Ron Holzhauer
The Symposium on Masonry sponsored by ASTM Committee C12 on Mortars and Grouts for Unit Masonry is seeking papers for presentation at its June 13 meeting in Toronto. The symposium, which is cosponsored by ASTM Committees C01 on Cement, C07 on Lime, and C15 on Manufactured Masonry Units, will be held in conjunction with the June 13-14 standards development meetings of Committees C12 and C15.
The objective of the symposium is to gather and disseminate the latest information on all aspects of innovations in masonry materials, design, specifications, construction, maintenance, and rehabilitation. It will emphasize the application of ASTM standards to those areas, and their coordination with building codes, project specifications, and international standards.
