masonry design
what is the best masonry design handbook to get in the us.  i have a good canadian book but, since i'm working in wisconsin now, the metric design aids are not very useful to me.  suggestions???
here is a pretty good manual: "masonry structural design for buildings."
avaiolable from the us army corps of engineers' publications website:
two books are referenced a lot here in the us:
"reinforced masonry engineering handbook", fifth edition, james e. amrhein, published by the masonry institute of america, los angeles, ca.
