This presentation will work through the strength design provisions as they relate to the design of masonry walls and lintels. This presentation will include recommendations for designing non-participating walls\, such as partitions\, so that participants understand when unreinforced masonry is appropriate and the minimum prescriptive seismic reinforcement requirements.

Prior to joining the MIM\, he managed the structural engineering department at Bergmann Associates in Lansing\, MI and worked as a senior structural engineer at Fishbeck. He is the secretary of the TMS 402/602-28 main committee and an at-large member of the TMS Board of Directors.
