Excerpt from Notes on Building Construction: Arranged to Meet the Requirements of the Syllabus of the Board of Education, South Kensington
These Notes are intended to furnish a Student with information amply sufficient to enable him to pass the Honours Examination of the Science and Art Department, so far as a knowledge of Building Materials is concerned.
They have, however, been extended somewhat beyond what is actually necessary for this purpose by the addition of Tables and information of a practical nature, which it is hoped may be useful to young Engineers, Architects, and others engaged in the design and erection of structures of different kinds.
It was considered that a work upon materials, written merely to meet the requirements of students in the Second Stage of the Science Examinations, would be unsatisfactory.
Such a work would contain very elementary information on the subject. It would be so condensed that it would not give a fair idea of the great differences which exist in the characteristics and qualities of even ordinary building materials; and being thus narrowly restricted, it would tend to encourage the pernicious practice of cramming.
In order to keep the bulk of the work within reasonable bounds, it has been necessary strictly to limit the scope of the Notes.
It will be well, therefore, to state exactly what they are meant to contain and what is purposely excluded.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is an instructive volume created to support the Science and Art Department's curriculum for building construction, specialising in materials. The author aims to provide readers with all they need to pass the Honours Examination in the subject, as well as an understanding of the physical characteristics, defects, and testing of materials used in typical building and engineering works. Furthering the author's goal of comprehensive coverage, useful information regarding stresses in parts of structures and processes such as concreting are included. The book's value extends beyond its usefulness for passing an exam, as it will be a valuable reference for young engineers, architects, and others engaged in the design and construction of various structures.
