Research for High Performance, Energy Driven Masonry Construction and Design

Alberta Masonry Council in conjunction with U of C Engineering research lab.

The Manitoba Masonry Institute is a proud co-sponsor of this ground-breaking research, which will help quantify and guide designers of tomorrow, in understanding the full value of masonry thermal properties, with respect to every evolving and efficient design codes.

With the construction of a state of the art environmental chamber, the thermal properties will be examined and documented in a controlled setting, to better understand the unique characteristics of masonry products and construction methods.
