Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Text-Book of Modern Carpentry: Comprising a Treatise on Building-Timber The following work has been prepared as a book of reference for the master-carpenter, and as a manual of instruction for the journeyman and the apprentice. The costliness of the works of Belidor, Rondelet, Tredgold, and others, places them beyond the reach of mechanics of ordinary means; and, being written with reference to scientific formulas, cannot be appreciated, or even understood, except by those versed in mathematics. Having in view the interests of the large and important class above named, we have scrupulously avoided such abstruse algebraic and mathematical formulas as would more properly belong to an encyclopædia of the science. Works of distinguished authors have been consulted, but nothing selected which did not commend itself as of immediate practical utility; and, while the advanced student may perhaps regret the absence of the higher mathematics, it is presumed that their omission removes a great obstacle to the progress of the less learned, though not less worthy, mechanic.
