Description
Sustainable design and green building are ever evolving. LEED version 4, introduced in late 2013, contains significant changes in the area of Materials and Resources. Masonry expert, Christine A. Subasic, P.E., LEED A.P., provides an overview of the LEEDTM v4 Rating System. This lesson will address LEED v4 credit categories, with particular emphasis on the Materials and Resources credits, and identify how masonry products can contribute to sustainable design and LEED. This lesson will also discuss the ways sustainable design goes beyond the U.S. Green Building Council’s LEED Rating System and give insight on the environmental building marketplace, as well as cover criteria and considerations used in selecting masonry products for LEED projects.
Learning Objectives:
- Provide an overview of the LEED v4 BD+C New Construction Rating System
- Understand the changes in the Materials and Resources credit category in LEED v4
- Explain sustainable design strategies and LEED strategies that utilize masonry
- Identify elements of sustainable design that are not always part of green building rating systems

The TMS 402/602-16 (formerly designated as TMS 402/ACI 530/ASCE 5 and TMS 602/ASCE 530.1/ASCE 6) has been released and adopted by the 2018 edition of the International Building Code and International Residential Code for the design and construction of structural masonry, masonry veneer, and glass unit masonry.
This lesson provides updates for the major updates and changes to the 2016 TMS 402/602, with a short review on changes that will be made in the 2018 International Building Code’s masonry provisions. The 1.5 hour video is presented by Dr. Richard M. Bennett, Chair of the Committee that developed these provisions.
This lesson is intended for designers, contractors, and others to help them understand the main updates made to these codes and standards from the earlier TMS 402/602-13 and the 2015 IBC. It is assumed that the user has familiarity with those earlier documents.

Anchor Bolt Design
This lesson covers the basis for these changes two major changes to the anchor bolt design provisions in the 2016 edition of TMS 402. One change was to increase the calculated shear crushing strength by 67%. The other change was to go from a linear interaction equation for combined bending and shear to an elliptical interaction equation.
