THE MASONRY SOCIETY
The Masonry Society is an international gathering of people interested in the art and science of masonry.
Founded in 1977, it is a professional, technical, and educational non-profit association dedicated to the
advancement of the knowledge on masonry. TMS members are design engineers, architects, builders,
researchers, educators, building officials, material suppliers, manufacturers, and others who want to
contribute to and benefit from the global pool of knowledge on masonry. Membership in TMS is open to
anyone interested in the activities and goals of the Society.
TMS gathers and disseminates technical information through its committees, publications, codes and
standards, slide sets, videotapes, computer software, newsletter, refereed journal, educational programs,
professors' workshop, scholarships, certification programs, disaster investigation team, and conferences.
TMS encourages its members to get involved in TMS committee work in order to gain the contacts,
knowledge, and recognition needed to thrive in their professions, while at the same time contributing to the
benefit of the industry. Additional information on membership, publications, and programs of The
Masonry Society is available by calling 303-939-9700.
COUNCIL FOR MASONRY RESEARCH
The Council for Masonry Research was formed to fulfill the need for an organization to lead and assist in
the development of material and construction oriented research designed to increase and preserve markets
for masonry materials. The Council represents diverse interests from within the masonry industry.
Through its contributing members the Council has sponsored and actively participated in both industry and
federally funded research while also providing continuing technical support for research programs.
