This grant provides funds to enhance graduate student participation in the 11th North American Masonry Conference (NAMC) of The Masonry Society (TMS). The 11th NAMC brings together experts from diverse fields with a strong interest in masonry structures. One of the focal points of the 11th NAMC is the investigation of new applications of mechanics in enabling future advances in masonry technology. Academics, industry representatives and students from many fields (civil engineering, engineering mechanics, architecture and others) have committed to presenting research results on a wide range of topics relayed to masonry structures and mechanics. These funds will allow the conference organizers to attract graduate students to the 11th NAMC to present their work. The students will present their work to an international audience of academics and researchers, they will learn about the most recent advances in the field of masonry structures, and they will be inspired to continue working in and contributing to the field. The conference participation will also facilitate cross-pollination between the disparate fields that comprise the masonry research community, as well as between the US research community with those in other countries. The 11th NAMC forum will help foster an environment that allows for the anticipation of new challenges that engineers face with regards to masonry structures, thereby facilitating professional growth to ensure that the challenges are met.

该补助金提供资金，以提高研究生参与第11届北美Massimo协会（TMS）会议（NAMC）。 第11届NAMC汇集了来自不同领域的专家，他们对砌体结构有着浓厚的兴趣。第11届NAMC的重点之一是研究力学在未来砌体技术进步中的新应用。 来自许多领域（土木工程，工程力学，建筑等）的学者，行业代表和学生致力于展示有关砌体结构和力学的广泛主题的研究成果。 这些资金将使会议组织者能够吸引研究生到第11届NAMC展示他们的工作。学生将向国际学者和研究人员展示他们的工作，他们将了解砌体结构领域的最新进展，并将受到启发，继续在该领域工作并为该领域做出贡献。会议的参与也将促进异花授粉之间的不同领域，包括砌体研究界，以及美国研究界与其他国家之间。第11届NAMC论坛将有助于营造一种环境，使工程师能够预测砌体结构面临的新挑战，从而促进专业成长，以确保迎接挑战。
