Expertise
Four capabilities built around occupied buildings.
Each capability is its own content type with scope items, a working sequence, related materials and related markets — so pages stay consistent as the library grows.
Renovations
Masonry scopes inside buildings that stay open — sequenced, protected and coordinated with the rest of the trades.
- Interior masonry alterations and infill
- Openings cut, framed and closed
- Wall reconfiguration in occupied areas
Restoration
Repair and rebuild of existing masonry with attention to matching the original material and coursing.
- Repair of deteriorated brick and block
- Rebuilds of failed wall sections
- Material matching for visible work
Additions
New masonry tied into existing buildings, from foundations-up walls to envelope closure.
- New exterior walls and veneer
- Structural block back-up
- Tie-ins to existing structures
Specialty Masonry
Glass block, structural glazed tile and glazed block work for institutional environments with hard-use requirements.
- Glass block panels and openings
- Structural glazed tile installation
- Glazed block walls and wainscots
Materials
Material taxonomy
Brick, block, glass block, structural glazed tile and glazed block are published as their own taxonomy so material-led searches have a landing place.
Brick
Load-bearing and veneer brick for exteriors, additions and restoration where matching existing work matters.
Block
Concrete masonry units for structural walls, back-up wythes, partitions and service areas.
Glass Block
Glass block assemblies used where daylight and security or privacy are needed in the same opening.
Structural Glazed Tile
Glazed structural tile for durable, cleanable interior surfaces in high-traffic institutional spaces.
Glazed Block
Glazed masonry units combining structural performance with a hard, washable finished face.
