Paperback. You want to build real things: floors that sit level, walls that stand plumb, a roof that keeps the rain out. But most carpentry books are written for people who already know the trade. They bury you in jargon on page one, lean on terms nobody defined, and hand you practice tests with no explanation of why an answer is right.So you are left guessing. And in construction, guessing is expensive.- One mismeasured cut wastes a board, and a pile of wrong cuts wastes a paycheck.- One skipped safety step can end a career, or worse.- One misread drawing can fail an inspection and cost days of rework.- Nothing is more discouraging than standing on a jobsite feeling like everyone speaks a language you were never taught.You do not need to feel behind. You need a guide that starts where you actually are.The Carpentry And Building Construction Trade Guide teaches the fundamentals of residential and light commercial construction in plain English, in the exact order a building comes together. Every tool, term, and technique is explained the first time it appears. Every calculation is worked out step by step, with nothing skipped. And every practice question comes with an answer key, so you always understand why the right answer is right.Inside this beginner-friendly guide: - 16 clear chapters that follow the real build sequence, from safety and tools to foundations, framing, roofing, and finish work- 152 multiple-choice practice questions, every one with an answer key- 35 fully worked examples that show every step of the math and the layout- 8 additional practice problems with complete worked solutions- A 58-term glossary and quick-reference section you will return to again and again- Jobsite math made simple: feet and inches, area and volume, the framing square, and board-foot estimating- Plain-language coverage of reading drawings, choosing materials, and understanding codes and inspectionsWhy this guide is different: - Written for true beginners, apprentices, and trade students, not for people who already know the trade- Safety comes first, on every page, not just in one chapter- Honest about what it covers and what it does not, so you are never misled- Always points you to the approved plans and your local building code for the final wordWhether you are starting a career in the trades, working toward an apprenticeship, or finally tackling projects around your own home with real confidence, this guide gives you the clear, honest foundation the other books assume you already have.Build your skills the right way, one solid concept at a time.

You want to build real things: floors that sit level, walls that stand plumb, a roof that keeps the rain out. But most carpentry books are written for people who already know the trade. They bury you in jargon on page one, lean on terms nobody defined, and hand you practice tests with no explanation of why an answer is right.
So you are left guessing. And in construction, guessing is expensive.
• One mismeasured cut wastes a board, and a pile of wrong cuts wastes a paycheck.
• One skipped safety step can end a career, or worse.
• One misread drawing can fail an inspection and cost days of rework.
• Nothing is more discouraging than standing on a jobsite feeling like everyone speaks a language you were never taught.
You do not need to feel behind. You need a guide that starts where you actually are.
The Carpentry And Building Construction Trade Guide teaches the fundamentals of residential and light commercial construction in plain English, in the exact order a building comes together. Every tool, term, and technique is explained the first time it appears. Every calculation is worked out step by step, with nothing skipped. And every practice question comes with an answer key, so you always understand why the right answer is right.
Inside this beginner-friendly guide:
• 16 clear chapters that follow the real build sequence, from safety and tools to foundations, framing, roofing, and finish work
• 152 multiple-choice practice questions, every one with an answer key
• 35 fully worked examples that show every step of the math and the layout
• 8 additional practice problems with complete worked solutions
• A 58-term glossary and quick-reference section you will return to again and again
• Jobsite math made simple: feet and inches, area and volume, the framing square, and board-foot estimating
• Plain-language coverage of reading drawings, choosing materials, and understanding codes and inspections
Why this guide is different:
• Written for true beginners, apprentices, and trade students, not for people who already know the trade
• Safety comes first, on every page, not just in one chapter
• Honest about what it covers and what it does not, so you are never misled
• Always points you to the approved plans and your local building code for the final word
Whether you are starting a career in the trades, working toward an apprenticeship, or finally tackling projects around your own home with real confidence, this guide gives you the clear, honest foundation the other books assume you already have.
Build your skills the right way, one solid concept at a time. Scroll up and add it to your cart today.

Si es un consumidor, puede rescindir el contrato de acuerdo con lo siguiente. Por consumidor se entiende cualquier persona física que actúe con fines ajenos a su actividad comercial, empresarial, oficio o profesión.
Información sobre el derecho de desistimiento
Derecho legal de desistimiento
Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 días sin dar ningún motivo.
El periodo de desistimiento vencerá a los 14 días desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesión física del último bien o del último lote o pieza.
Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electrónica y envíe una declaración clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a través de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electrónico).
Para cumplir con el plazo de desistimiento, basta con que envíe su comunicación relativa al ejercicio del derecho de desistimiento antes de que venza el periodo de desistimiento.
Efectos del desistimiento
Si rescinde este contrato, le reembolsaremos todos los pagos que hayamos recibido de usted, incluidos los gastos de envío (excepto los gastos adicionales que surjan si elige un tipo de envío que no sea el tipo de envío estándar más económico que ofrecemos).
Podemos hacer una deducción del reembolso por la pérdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la pérdida es el resultado de una manipulación innecesaria por su parte.
Efectuaremos el reembolso sin demoras indebidas y, a más tardar, 14 días después de que se nos informe de su decisión de rescindir este contrato.
Efectuaremos el reembolso utilizando el mismo medio de pago que utilizó para la transacción inicial, a menos que haya acordado expresamente lo contrario; en cualquier caso, no incurrirá en ningún cargo como resultado de dicho reembolso.
Podremos retener el reembolso hasta que hayamos recibido los bienes o hasta que nos haya presentado una prueba de que los ha devuelto, lo que ocurra primero.
Deberá devolver los bienes o entregarlos a Grand Eagle Retail, Bensenville, Illinois, U.S.A., sin demoras indebidas y, en cualquier caso, en un plazo máximo de 14 días a partir del día en que nos comunique su desistimiento del presente contrato. El plazo se cumple si devuelve la mercancía antes de que venza el periodo de 14 días. Tendrá que asumir los gastos directos de devolución de los bienes. Usted solo es responsable de la disminución del valor de los bienes como resultado de una manipulación distinta a la necesaria para establecer la naturaleza, las características y el funcionamiento de los bienes.
