The Twelfth North American Masonry Conference

Words: Phillip SamblanetThe 12th North American Masonry Conference (NAMC) will be held May 17 to 20 at the downtown Denver campus of the University of Colorado Denver.

The 12th North American Masonry Conference will be hosted by the Civil Engineering Department of the University of Colorado Denver and will be lead by Dr. Frederick Rutz, University of Colorado Denver (UCD) and Michael Schuller, Atkinson-Noland & Associates (ANA), with local support from the Rocky Mountain Masonry Institute (RMMI). The Masonry Society will coordinate the NAMC and serve as its primary sponsor along with support from the masonry technical community.

The North American Masonry Conference (NAMC) is a forum for the exchange of scientific, engineering, architectural, construction, evaluation, and repair information on masonry. The conference includes technical papers and sessions, panel discussions, and other methods of information exchange. The conference, which is organized by The Masonry Society and a local hosting University, is now held every four years (up through the 8th NAMC in 1999 it was held every three years), and the most recent NAMC, the 11th, was held in Minneapolis Minnesota on June 5-8, 2011.

For the 12NAMC additional efforts will be made to involve contractors, producers, designers, and those concerned with masonry training. A key aspect built into the themes will be the promotion of masonry in the local, regional and national markets.
