MasterFormat ® 2020: A Master List of Titles and Numbers for the Construction Industry is now available from CSI.
Keep current, get the latest edition.
MasterFormat is a taxonomy that breaks down and organizes the work to be performed and its results in a construction project. It can be used to organize project manuals filled with specifications, provide detailed cost estimates, perform budgeting and cost analysis and tracking, and tagging of designed objects in building information models (BIM).
MasterFormat is in use by many of the largest information and software providers in the United States and the world.
MasterFormat is available in two forms:
- Electronic only: Immediate access to the full contents of MasterFormat in a web-accessible format.
