Free Guide for Masons and Building Professionals

MASONPRO, of Northville, Mich., is now offering a free, revised 2006 publication called "Guide to Inspecting Residential Brick Veneer."

The knowledgeable staff at MASONPRO has assembled the information as a professional courtesy for the residential construction building industry. Their intention is to provide masons and other industry professionals with details and descriptions of sound masonry practices that meet and/or exceed local, state and national building codes.

The 14-page guide provides isometric drawings, along with descriptive call-outs, that identify the main building components. The booklet also provides detail drawings for common residential construction, including flashings, weeps and wall ties. Copies of this guide are available in English and Spanish at www.masonpro.com.
