Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Comprehensive and Transverse Strength of Brick Character or texture - The character of the texture does not appear to be related to variation in the ratio of the two compressive strengths. In general, a vitreous structure is associated, with high compressive strength and an open, granular, poorly bonded structure has low strength. But extremes of ratios are associated with both types of structures. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Compressive Strength of Clay Brick Walls Tests of walls built of sand-lime brick have been made and the results reported in Technologic Paper no. 276. The present paper reports and discusses the results of the tests on clay brick masonry. In this report walls numbered 1 to 17 are of such construction as to permit comparison with those built of sand-lime brick, but it should be noted that the sand-lime brick used were Of slightly higher coma pressive strength than those used in the construction of walls 1 to 17, inclusive. The effect Of brick strength on wall strength is dis cussed herein. The tests on masonry Of cement brick have not yet (1929) been made. The scope Of this investigation has been extended much beyond the original plan, for it seemed desirable to discover, if possible, some of the factors which influence or measure masonry strength. It is believed that much pertinent information, not heretofore known and analyzed, has been disclosed and that this information may be useful to engineers and architects and to the construction industry generally.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Strength of Interlocking-Rib Tile Walls On the assumption that the modulus of rupture is a fair basis of comparison of the relative transverse strength of 8 and 12 inch walls, it can be stated that no wall of the ordinary type of tile tested showed as high transverse strength as the 12-inch interlocking-rib tile wall with cement-lime mortar (16 - E - 3, N o. And only one 8-inch wall (1 - S - 4) showed transverse strength comparable with it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A superb visual reference to the principles of architecture Now including interactive CD-ROM! For more than thirty years, the beautifully illustrated Architecture: Form, Space, and Order has been the classic introduction to the basic vocabulary of architectural design. The updated Third Edition features expanded sections on circulation, light, views, and site context, along with new considerations of environmental factors, building codes, and contemporary examples of form, space, and order. This classic visual reference helps both students and practicing architects understand the basic vocabulary of architectural design by examining how form and space are ordered in the built environment.? Using his trademark meticulous drawing, Professor Ching shows the relationship between fundamental elements of architecture through the ages and across cultural boundaries. By looking at these seminal ideas, Architecture: Form, Space, and Order encourages the reader to look critically at the built environment and promotes a more evocative understanding of architecture. In addition to updates to content and many of the illustrations, this new edition includes a companion CD-ROM that brings the book's architectural concepts to life through three-dimensional models and animations created by Professor Ching.

Download or read book Twentieth Century Building Materials written by Thomas C. Jester and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2014-08-01 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the concluding decades of the twentieth century, the historic preservation community increasingly turned its attention to modern buildings, including bungalows from the 1930s, gas stations and diners from the 1940s, and office buildings and architectural homes from the 1950s. Conservation efforts, however, were often hampered by a lack of technical information about the products used in these structures, and to fill this gap Twentieth-Century Building Materials was developed by the U.S. Department of the Interior’s National Park Service and first published in 1995. Now, this invaluable guide is being reissued—with a new preface by the book’s original editor. With more than 250 illustrations, including a full-color photographic essay, the volume remains an indispensable reference on the history and conservation of modern building materials. Thirty-seven essays written by leading experts offer insights into the history, manufacturing processes, and uses of a wide range of materials, including glass block, aluminum, plywood, linoleum, and gypsum board. Readers will also learn about how these materials perform over time and discover valuable conservation and repair techniques. Bibliographies and sources for further research complete the volume. The book is intended for a wide range of conservation professionals including architects, engineers, conservators, and material scientists engaged in the conservation of modern buildings, as well as scholars in related disciplines.
