Download or read book The Stonemason and the Bricklayer Classic Reprint written by and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-19 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Stonemason and the Bricklayer Ike the companion volumes in the present series of works, designed for Home Study or self-instruction in the various departments of Industrial Work, the matter forming the major portion of the present volume appeared originally in the well-known serial entitled The Industrial self-instructor, under the two heads of The Stonemason and The Bricklayer. The leading departments of the two constructive arts were fully described and largely illustrated by a wide and extended range of diagrams in the text, supplemented with a series of full-page plates; but while of necessity many of the textual illustrations were only dia gramatic in character, these amply meeting the requirements of description of various points and principles of work - the illustrations for the most part were working drawings reduced and arranged from drawings and designs used in actual construction. These gave, therefore, an amount of practical information calculated to be of great value to the student. These have nearly all been reproduced in the present volume.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Masonry, Bricklaying and Plastering, Both Plain and Ornamental: Containing a New and Complete System of Lines for Stone-Cutting In submitting the present Volume to the Public, we have to offer our grateful acknowledgments for the very favourable reception which the previous work on Carpentry and Joinery has met with, and we feel much gratified in having been, in an eminent degree, successful in our endeavours to unfold and elucidate the scientific Principles and Practical Application of those Arts which have the object of employing Wood in the construction of Buildings: we now proceed to develope, in a similar manner, the scientific Frinciples and Practice of the Arts of Construction, using other materials, and particularly the important Arts of Masonry and Bricklaying, and also the Ornamental Art of Plastering. Our plan consists in separately treating the Arts of Construction, and elucidating them by grouping together those principal branches which have a natural relation to each other, and which require similar operations, and in which a workman in the one always has an advantage in knowing the principles of the others; and we are the more powerfully encouraged to proceed in it, by the knowledge that this plan is as new as it will be found useful, and we trust the Work itself will bear the palm, as well for originality and beauty, as for its practical utility. The nature of our Work will be more fully understood from the following short sketch of its plan. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Masonry Structures Classic Reprint written by Frederick Putman Spalding and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Masonry Structures The term Masonry has been construed to include concrete, and the field covered by the title is a very wide one. It has therefore been necessary to select for discussion those types which seem most adequately to illustrate the principles, and no attempt has been made to cover fully the details of all classes of masonry structures. The purpose has been to provide an introduction to the subject, which may later be followed by intensive study in more detailed works upon the various branches. This gives a general view of the subject as a whole, and is the natural method of approach. The Author has derived much assistance from a number of books which deal more fully with various portions of the subject. These are mentioned at the ends of articles or chapters to which they specially relate. They should be studied by students desiring a more complete presentation of the subject. Special acknowledgment is also due to Professors A. Lincoln Hyde and Guy D. Newton of the University of Missouri for reading and criticising portions of the manuscript and for assistance in pre paring the illustrations.

Download or read book Practical Masonry Classic Reprint written by Edward Shaw and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-21 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Masonry Most works on this subject set out witu a description of all the minutiae of the art of building; and though they may, perhaps, exhibit something that will be useful to the apprentice, yet they contain much that is of no importance to the practical mechanic; while the price is so much enhanced, that few can well afford to possess them. As permanency in building seems, at the present day, to be an object more desirable than formerly, it has been thought that a brief account of the nature and qualities of building materials, with a short exposition of their component parts, would not be misplaced in a treatise of this kind. The Compiler flatters himself, that he has, on this head, furnished some informa tion, that will be serviceable not only to the operator but to the proprietor; neither of whom can, with safety, remain unacquainted with the quality of the materials employed.

This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Volume Changes in Brick Masonry Materials It is reasonable to assume that the tendency of a mortar to remain bonded under any and all conditions is greater, the smaller its volume changes, provided, of course, that the masonry unit to which it adheres undergoes little or no expansion or contraction. In other words, by reducing to the lowest possible minimum the differential volume changes in unit masonry the life of the bond should be increased. Increasing the life of the bond between mortar and units should help in part at least to reduce water penetration through the masonry.
