Excellent introductory course which provides logical explanations for current practice and why current practice evolved the way it did. Understanding masonry terminology is just as important and is clearly explained throughout the course. Masonry construction is a complex topic and this course is very helpful yo engineers who are not structural or civil engineers.

I also understand what I should look for in project construction at my work place. As usual, Dr. Glon has taken a complex topic and made it understandable.
