The Masonry Society | An Overview

The Masonry Society is an international gathering of people interested in the art and science of masonry. It is a professional, technical, and educational association dedicated to the advancement of 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.

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 was founded in 1977 and the First North American Masonry Conference was held in Boulder, Colorado in 1978. Today, TMS has approximately 650 members worldwide who help support the Society in its mission to advance the knowledge of masonry.
