Modern Masonry: Brick, Block, Stone provides a thorough grounding in the methods of laying brick, block, and stone. The book presents a broad understanding of materials and their properties. Students in community colleges, trade schools, vocational and technical schools, or any individual training for the masonry trades, will find this title a source book of near-encyclopedic dimensions. It is equally suitable for apprenticeship training. The book includes the newest materials and building techniques used in the industry. The number of step-by-step procedures for laying brick and block walls of all types and setting stone in a number of applications has been greatly increased in this edition. New products such as insulated concrete wall forms, insulated blocks, and special masonry units have been included. The latest ASTM, ACI, OSHA, ASCE, NCMA, SBCCI, and BOCA standards related to concrete and masonry construction were consulted in the preparation of this revision. - Introduction.
