Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'International Library of Technology: Brickwork, Terra Cotta and Concrete' is a comprehensive technical guide detailing the essential materials and methods used in early 20th-century masonry and construction. Authored by William S. Lowndes, this work provides an in-depth examination of the properties and applications of brick, ornamental terra cotta, and structural concrete.The text covers everything from the fundamental principles of bricklaying and mortar selection to the intricate processes of manufacturing and installing decorative terra cotta. Special attention is given to the evolving use of concrete in residential and commercial architecture, offering practical insights into reinforcement and molding.
