Masonry Wall Bracing Webinar

Confidently design and construct bracing

By Tim O’Toole

The Mason Contractors Association of America will host the Masonry Wall Bracing webinar on Wednesday, August 10, 2011, at 9:00 AM CT. Tickets can be purchased at www.masoncontractors.org/live.

The Masonry Wall Bracing Seminar has been developed to provide contractors with the know-how to confidently design and construct bracing for a variety of common masonry structures. This is an opportunity to save your company money by designing your own wall bracing rather than paying a structural engineer.

This course is intended to teach project managers, safety managers, foremen and any other responsible person to understand and implement the OSHA regulation on wall bracing, the Standard Practice for Bracing Masonry Walls, and the Masonry Wallbracing Design Handbook. Completion of this course will allow your people to safely and efficiently design adequate masonry wall bracing. Why pay an engineer for a design that you can do yourself?

Register for this webinar today at www.masoncontractors.org/live.
