Our staff has thoroughly reviewed every page of all the books in the collection, repairing, or if necessary, rejecting titles that are not of the highest quality. This process ensures that the reader of one of Trieste Publishing's titles receives a volume that faithfully reproduces the original, and to the maximum degree possible, gives them the experience of owning the original work.We pride ourselves on not only creating a pathway to an extensive reservoir of books of the finest quality, but also providing value to every one of our readers.

Excerpt: ... chapter xviii. qualities of concrete blocks. F1rst in importance of the qualities of concrete blocks is that freedom from cracks, deformation, and disintegration which cannot be better defined than by the comprehensive word " soundness." Whatever be the other qualities of a block, it is valueless without soundness; whatever be its defects, it is good for something if sound. It is scarcely necessary to say that a first requisite of a sound block is a sound cement. Of this matter enough has been said in the chapter on Cement. Of the quantity of cement it may be added, to what has already been stated in the chapter devoted to Proportioning and the chapter on Voids, that the cement must thoroughly coat the aggregate in order to exercise its cementitious or bonding function, which is so essential to a sound concrete block. The matter of mixing also has a direct action upon the ultimate quality, and that in the respect last mentioned. It is in the handling and curing of blocks after manufacture, however, that unsoundness is most often developed. In transferring blocks to the racks, cars, and curing-yard, latent defects and invisible cracks are developed which ultimately cause the loss of the entire block, or, if a rigid inspection of the finished product be omitted, may result in failure of the member in time of need. It should be remembered that a crack in a freshly made block never heals, but rather tends to extend through the block. Hence too much care of green blocks cannot be exercised, and the slightest defect should cause the block to be immediately returned to the mixing-platform, or, if the cement has already set, it should go to the scrap-pile. In curing, lack of uniform conditions of moisture and shade, as well as air-drafts, are...

Download or read book On Frank Lloyd Wright s Concrete Adobe written by Donald Leslie Johnson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the years 1919 into 1925 Frank Lloyd Wright worked on four houses and a kindergarten located in metropolitan Los Angeles using concrete blocks as the main building material. The construction system has been described by Wright and others as ’uniquely molded’, ’woven like a textile fabric’ and perceived as ground breaking, truly modern, unprecedented. Many have attempted to uphold these claims while some thought the house-designs borrowed from old exotic buildings. For the first time this book brings together Wright’s declarations, the support of upholders and inferences in order to determine their accuracy and correctness, or the possibility of feigned or fictional stories. It examines technical developments of concrete blocks by Wright and others before his experiences in Los Angeles began in 1919. It also studies the manner of Wright’s design process by an examination of relevant pictorial and textual documents. A unique, in-depth and critical analysis of the houses is set within historical, biographical and theoretical contexts. Consequently, the book explains the impact upon Wright of California contemporaries, architects Irving Gill and Rudolph Schindler, and their instrumentally profound role upon the course of modernism 1907-1923. In doing so, it allows a full appreciation of Wright’s, Gill’s and Schindler’s buildings beyond their experiential qualities.
