Masonry, Bricklaying and Plastering by Robert Scott Burn Pdf

Robert Scott Burn wrote this book in 1871 at a time of great developments in science, industry and exploration, and when materials for engineering and building were constantly being improved and replaced. It offers, therefore, a useful coverage of both traditional techniques and materials such as stone, brick and pise, but also examines the developments in the use of cement for wall covering as well as cement blocks to be used as artificial stone. This reprint of the original work contains over 400 pages of text dealing with materials, practical construction techniques, masonry and brickwork, principles of design, drawing, plastering and wall decoration, as well as many other aspects of construction. The 160 plates which accompany the text include a large number of drawings of different parts of buildings, including: window, door and wall details in various styles; arches; staircases; consoles and brackets in stone and terracotta; hollow and ornamental brickwork and designs of shop fronts.

The Modern Bricklayer - A Practical Work on Bricklaying in all its Branches - Volume III by William Frost Pdf

Brickwork is a form of masonry that utilises bricks and mortar. Rows of bricks—or, 'courses'—are placed on top of each other in order to create a structure such as a wall. This is volume I of William Frost's “The Modern Bricklayer”, a detailed guide to all aspects of bricklaying, including slating, tiling, planning, materials, tools, and more. Contents include: “House Drains”, “Egg-Shaped and Circular Sewers”, “Sand Courses”, “Retaining Walls”, “Reinforced Brickwork”, “Arches”, “Cornices”, “Gauged Brickwork: Introduction”, “Gauged Work—Various Forms of Arches”, “Gauges Work—Arches”, “Gauged Work: Ninches, Panels, and Mouldings”, “Terra-cotta and Glazed Ware”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on DIY.
