Book excerpt: Excerpt from Concrete Construction for Rural Communities The extension of the use of concrete to farms and rural communities has developed a need for a textbook treating the essential features of concrete construction in a thorough but simple manner. Most of the works now available either are written for engineers and are unsuited to the non-technical man, or are in the form of bulletins dealing chiefly with the uses to which concrete is put in rural communities, without giving a systematic treatment of fundamental principles governing its use. The author has endeavored, in writing this book, to make it suitable for use as a text in a brief course in concrete construction for agricultural or other students in colleges, when accompanied by laboratory exercises and field construction, and to make it valuable to others who have occasion to use concrete. Chapter II, on Cement Specifications and Tests, and Chapter VIII, on Strength of Reinforced Concrete, are necessarily somewhat technical, but it is thought best to include this matter for the use of students. Persons who find the matter difficult or uninteresting may pass over these chapters. In the preparation of the book, various sources of information have been freely used, chief among which are Taylor and Thompson's "Concrete, Plain and Reinforced," and the bulletins published by the Universal. Portland Cement Company, of Chicago, The Atlas Portland Cement Company of New York, the Association of American Portland Cement Manufacturers of Philadelphia, and the Office of Public Roads and Rural Engineering, United States Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C. The author wishes to express his gratitude to those who have given him permission to use their tables and figures and to acknowledge his indebtedness to Professors N. A. Crawford, P. J. Freeman, and M. R. Bowerman of the Kansas State Agricultural College for assistance in the preparation of the manuscript.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Concrete for the Farmer For many years the farmer's chief building material has been wood. At one time it was plentiful and therefore an economical material to use. The land had to be cleared for agricultural purposes and because of the farmer's nearness to the timber supply, it is but natural that he used wood almost to the exclusion of other building materials and has continued to do so while it has been largely discarded in the larger communities.

Download or read book Farmer s Handbook on Concrete Construction Classic Reprint written by Portland Cement Association and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Farmer's Handbook on Concrete Construction The fact that concrete 1s a plastic material and is easily cast in any required shape makes it especially adapted to farm structures. If properly made it will last forever. Its durable qualities are such that it means the elimination of cost for repairs and renewals. It is a dense and impervious substance affording no harbor for rats, vermin, and other destructive agencies. With the exception of the Portland cement, the necessary materials are usually found upon the farm. For the reasons stated, concrete makes strong appeal to the farmer. The actual money saved in repairs and reconstruction will soon offset any excess cost over other materials. It is often the case, however, that concrete structures cost no more than buildings of other materials, and often less. The farmer can ordinarily do the work with the assistance of his farm hands, making it unnecessary to hire an expert carpenter or mason. Great economy is achieved in this way. Perhaps the greatest benefit to be derived from concrete con struction is the elimination of fire risk. This is of vital importance to the farmer, who is usually too far from a town to permit of any real protection from fire.
