Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stone, Vol. 5: An Illustrated Magazine; June to November, 1892 As to the latest thing in power transmission. The use of electricity. It is to be remarked. That so far as its use in factories is concerned it seems to be confined as yet to the electrical manufacturing companies themselves. Largely perhaps. Because of the great first cost of such power installations which of course these companies have at manufacturers' cost. While other buyers have to pay a good round profit. As these installations do not differ in principle from a number of cases in Europe where the power of waterfalls is thus carried for long distances before being used. There is no reason to doubt their capabilities from a mechanical point of view. The only question being one of comparative cost. Which. Reduced to its last terms. Is simply whether the saving in fuel and other running expenses will pay for the greater original investment required. But until the method becomes a little more common and is in use by those who have no interest to serve in indis criminate praise the necessary figures on which to base a comparison with other methods will not be attainable.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stone, Vol. 14: An Illustrated Magazine; December, 1896, to May, 1897 Most of this work is done with the pen, pencil-marks upon tracing-paper being neither distinct nor durable. The outlines of course are traced, from prints or photographs, just as they are found. But the shading, even in the case of wood-cuts, is not textually reproduced, the forms of the shades and shadows being rendered by a series of at tints. These are sometimes put in with the brush, but more often with the pen, parallel vertical lines being employed just as in drawing, This work is indeed, both in the out line work and in the shading, an admirable introduction to draughtsmanship with pen or pencil. The brush is in constant use, however, in making tracings of examples of colored decoration from prints of Egyptian tombs, Greek vases, or tiles and terra cotta of every period. The outlines are then sometimes drawn with the pen and filled in with color, which is often laid on the other side of the paper. But these may be dispensed with and the tracing made with the brush altogether. This is particularly effective in tracing anthemions and honeysuckle work from Greek vases, and in this work Japanese brushes prove specially serviceable. These exercises are immediately utilized in the service of the historical studies which compose a chief part of our course. While practicing the essential principles of draughtsmanship in making tracings from drawings, engravings and photographs, our students are at the same time accumulating valuable memoranda for future reference. The tracing books in which this work is stored away become, before the end of the course is reached, a price less possession. (plate II.)

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stone, Vol. 18: An Illustrated Magazine; December, 1898, to May, 1899 HE numerous uses to which quartz. In its various forms may be put, fail naturally into three groups. According as to whether it is used in the nat ural state. Or must previously undergo some process of sawing and cutting, or of crushing. Of the first group the best examples are the quartz sand used in the manufacture of glass and pottery, and the impalpable powder made up of the silicious remains of microscopic organisms, which is so extensively used for polishing purposes under the name of Tripoli. In the second group. The great number of quartz gems. And the more plebeian grindstoms, whetstones and oilstones will serve as illustrations; while in the third group is found the powdered form of the mineral. So important as an abrasive. Its value in this line results from the sharp angularity of the minute grains formed by the process of crushing. And whether used for etching by the sand blast, or simply in the manufacture of our common sand paper. It is far more cfi'ective than the more rounded grains of the natural sands which are sometimes employed. The same is true, though to a lesser degree. In the processes of grinding and polishing employed in stone-working. In recent years there has also been a considerable annual output of quartz crystal, crushed to an impalpable powder. And used in wood finishing. On applying a mixture of powder and oil. The oil at once strikes into the pores of the wood, carrying the powder with it, and rendering it capable of taking a high polish.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stone, Vol. 17: An Illustrated Magazine; June, 1898, to November, 1898 The ancient buildings of Bristol are of special interest to architects and builders in stone. The Cathedral was founded in 1142, and the old Abbey Gateway is a fine specimen of Norman handiwork. The four receding orders are elaborately enriched with zigzag and other mouldings, and an interlacing arcade lines the passage within. The design of the Cathedral, which is set down to Abbot Knowle, is of daring originality. And has-seldom, if ever, been adopted since. The side aisles of all the great Gothic churches of Europe were, and still are, much inferior in height to the central choir and nave, thus admitting the two latter to be lighted by a row of windows above the aisle roofs, known as the clerestory, but to carry up his side aisles to the full height of the central church, necessitating feats of engineering skill as masterly as they were novel, the lateral thrust of the middle vault was overcome by a beam of stone - a sort of flat flying buttress - carried across each bay of the aisles to the external buttresses, the dimensions of which were consequently of extraordinary magnitude. The effect is disappointing when the church is examined from without, giving it the appearance rather of a large college chapel than that of a cathedral; but the efi'ect of space, light and wondrous beauty and harmony within never fails to impress the visitor.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stone, Vol. 24: An Illustrated Magazine; January 1902, to June 1902 With the general prosperity in which all of the South shared. It is only natural that there should be a large increase in the amount of coarse granite crushed for roads and used for riprap. But it is a tribute to the excellent quality of the South Carolina granite that there was a proportionate in crease in the amount of fine stone sold for building and monumental stock. The uses to which the stone was put were as follows: Sold in the rough. $1376: dressed for building purposes, dressed for monumental work. Made into paving blocks, curbing. Crushed for roads, rip rap. The value of the limestone output. Including a small amount for North Carolina, was Almost the entire amount was burned into lime. There has been great activity in the granite fields of the state the past year. And several new companies have been started. The output for 1902 will undoubtedly show a decided advance. Promising deposits of marble have been prospected, especially in Union county, and there are strong probabilities that South Carolina will. Before long, take a place among the marble producing states. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stone, Vol. 6: An Illustrated Magazine; December 1892, to May, 1893 It may be true. As the author states, that very few systematic tests of the various properties of British building stones have been published since the report of the royal commission of 1883 was issued. But, the question arises. Is it worth the while to make further tests. And if so what should be their character? I have elsewhere* stated my views regarding the common methods of testing and it is unnecessary to repeat them in full here, other than to observe that the experimenter has. In my opinion. Devoted a very large proportion of his energies to tests in no way essential and from which nothing of value is to be learned, and has devoted little. If any. Time to those points which I am firmly convinced need most to be experimented upon. To the average architect and engineer strength. And perhaps elasticity of the materials. Seem of paramount importance, and test after test is made to ascertain the actual crushing strength of carefully prepared cubes of mate rial already known to possess an endurance far beyond any probable demand.
