Masterspec Link on Windows

Masterspec Link is a Microsoft Word-based programme where the specifier selects the specification sections required for their project and adds it to a Word document. This is further customised and edited in Word to produce a project specific specification.

These instructions relate to using Masterspec Link with the Masterspec Standard, Structural & Civil, Services, Landscapes, Basic and Interiors Libraries. Link operates slightly differently with Masterspec Minor Residential - seperate instructions are given below.

Use the navigation to access detailed, practical assistance on building, editing and customising your specification. A downloadable PDF version is also available at this link.
