Download or read book Suggestions for the Improvement of Old Bank Dairy Barns Classic Reprint written by Morris Cotgrave Betts and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-27 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Suggestions for the Improvement of Old Bank Dairy Barns Very frequently heavy beams are placed with the lesser dimension vertical, an uneconomical practice originating with the use of tree trunks adzed on two sides to provide bearing surfaces. There is a rough rule that doubling the width of a 'given timber doubles the strength, but doubling the height increases the strength four times. A square timber is often used when one of less width but greater height and of less cross-sectional area would carry the same load. Thus an 8 by 12 inch beam with the 12-inch side vertical will carry 21' per cent more than a 10 by 10 inch beam, yet the former contains 4. Per cent less material than the latter. If the beam were placed with the 8-inch side vertical it would support but three-fourths as much weight as the 10 by 10 inch beam. The true overshot construction - that is, without posts or piers under the outer wall - makes very expensive storage for hay or straw. The heavy cantilever beams required are an uneconomical form of support because of the size of the beams and the substantial anchor age that must be provided at their inner ends. 'beams supported at the outer ends require much less material and erection labor. A comparison of the two principles is shown in Figure 7.

Download or read book The Man who Created Paradise written by Gene Logsdon and published by Ohio University Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gene Logsdon’s The Man Who Created Paradise is a message of hope at a time when the sustainability of the earth appears to many to be hopeless. The fable, inspired by a true story, tells how young Wally Spero looked at one of the bleakest places in America—the strip-mined spoil banks of southeastern Ohio—and saw in it his escape from the drudgery of his factory job. He bought an old bulldozer and used the machine to carve patiently, acre by acre, a beautiful little farm out of a seemingly worthless wasteland. This charming story is the purest distillation yet of what Gene Logsdon has been writing as a journalist and author through the course of some twenty books of nonfiction and hundreds of magazine articles. Environmental restoration is the task of our time. The work of healing our land begins in our own backyards and farms, in our neighborhoods and our regions. Humans can turn the earth into a veritable paradise—if they really want to.Noted photographer Gregory Spaid retraced the trail that Logsdon traveled when he was inspired to write The Man Who Created Paradise. His photographs evoke the same soulful yearning for wholeness, for ties to land and community, that infuses the fable’s hopeful, poetic prose. Seldom have words and images complemented each other so well.

Download or read book Every Root an Anchor written by R. Bruce Allison and published by Wisconsin Historical Society. This book was released on 2005-04-13 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Every Root an Anchor, writer and arborist R. Bruce Allison celebrates Wisconsin's most significant, unusual, and historic trees. More than one hundred tales introduce us to trees across the state, some remarkable for their size or age, others for their intriguing histories. From magnificent elms to beloved pines to Frank Lloyd Wright's oaks, these trees are woven into our history, contributing to our sense of place. They are anchors for time-honored customs, manifestations of our ideals, and reminders of our lives' most significant events. For this updated edition, Allison revisits the trees' histories and tells us which of these unique landmarks are still standing. He sets forth an environmental message as well, reminding us to recognize our connectedness to trees and to manage our tree resources wisely. As early Wisconsin conservationist Increase Lapham said, "Tree histories increase our love of home and improve our hearts. They deserve to be told and remembered."
