About Split Face
Echelon Split Face Block standard CMUs and Rockface Finish blocks are integrally colored pre-finished architectural concrete blocks with a beautiful, rough-hewn texture on one or more faces. Split Face concrete masonry units are molded with two concrete units attached face to face. The units are cured and then mechanically split apart, leaving the split face with a rough texture that emulates natural quarried stone. No two Split Face or Rockface block units are exactly alike. Echelon’s Split Face or Rockface blocks are available in both single-sided and double-sided split face texture to meet multiple architectural masonry needs.
*Split Face Block is not available in Minnesota.

Introduction To Rainscreen Ventilated Facades
CEU Credits: 1 LU | HSW
A rainscreen cladding is one of the most efficient systems for construction envelope purposes in today’s commercial building environment. This presentation will discuss how rainscreen cladding provides a building solution that aligns with current sustainable architecture trends and is surprisingly easy to install.
Lunch and Learn
Modern Masonry Using Pre-Blended Mortar
CEU Credits: 1 LU | HSW
Pre-blended mortar eliminates many of the variables and uncertainties of site-mixed mortar, thus reducing the potential for problems and liability with the finished masonry construction. In this course, we will look at the types of mortar available, the process and pitfalls of field mixing versus pre-blended mortar, and the significance of mortar in masonry assemblies.
Masonry Solutions for BIM
CEU Credits: 1 LU | HSW
This presentation provides a condensed overview of BIM and its impact on the construction industry, with a particular focus on new software tools that are changing the way masonry is designed, specified, ordered, manufactured, shipped, installed and maintained.
Lunch and Learn
Masonry vs. the Storm – Building for Resilience
CEU Credits: 1 LU | HSW
This presentation will discuss how the strength and resiliency of masonry construction can help protect a building – and its occupants – from storm damage, return structures to use faster following a disaster and reduce the long-term cost of repairs.
Lunch and Learn
Design Strategies for Architectural Stone Masonry
CEU Credits: 1 LU | HSW
Learn how to effectively design masonry walls using legacy stone products, such as natural limestone, cast stone and architectural masonry, as well as calcium silicate and architectural pre-cast products.
Lunch and Learn
Controlling Moisture in Masonry
CEU Credits: 1 LU | HSW
Moisture intrusion is a leading cause of structural damage across all building types, and a leading threat to occupant health and wellbeing.
