Book excerpt: Excerpt from House Construction That Reduces Heating Costs Buildings of the larger type, especially those relating to community needs, have been carefully studied by the architect and the engineer and excellent standards of construction have been developed. The office building, the school, the auditorium, the factory and the apartment building, in their individual fields and according to their respective needs have all commanded the best in science and skill which the country affords, with the result that they have become models of convenience and economy. Residence buildings, on the other hand. Especially those costing under seven or eight thousand dollars. Principally because of the smaller investment but partly because of the urgency of the call elsewhere, have had less attention and so, in a sense, have been neglected by the engineer and the architect and turned over to the best judgment of the owner and the builder. As a result, the houses we live in need our serious consideration. The residence problem throughout the country has become acute and there must be, in the near future, a strong revival of small building projects to satisfy the unprecedented demand now existing for new houses. With this prospect in view it is fitting to discuss the most outstanding imperfections in our present practice and suggest some changes for the better. This is a large field to enter and no attempt will be made to cover it. Only one type of construction will be considered. The framed-wall type sometimes called the balloon-frame construction. This type of construction has many possibilities for good or ill. Since it may be either the best or the worst for the comfort of the occupants. According to the care with which it is planned and constructed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Frederick Thomas Hodgson's book, Light and Heavy Timber Framing Made Easy is a nearly 400-page reference manual, intended to be an experienced woodworker's companion when timber framing and a valuable guidebook for those new to the craft. The book begins with an introduction to the joints used in woodwork framing and a classification of the various timbers available. A lengthy section on the classification of joints follows. These three sections combine to form what is essentially the introductory portion of the text. Hodgson then transitions into detailed discussions of specifics aspects of timber framing: studding, partitions, doors, balloon framing, roofing and more. The latter half of the book is dedicated entirely to a thorough breakdown of heavy timber framing and the challenges and solutions specifically associated with this aspect of the craft. With over 450 illustrations included, the images in Light and Heavy Timber Framing Made Easy are at times just as valuable as the text. These images have been clearly reproduced in this republication, providing the reader with added insight. Hodgson's text is a detailed breakdown of light and heavy timber framing. This book would make a valuable addition to the library of any woodworker, particularly those interested in heritage methods. Individuals new to woodworking and framing would certainly benefit from reading this text. As both a reference manual and a guidebook, Frederick Hodgson's Light and Heavy Timber Framing Made Easy is highly recommended.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Successful Houses and How to Build Them An inherent desire seems to be born in every one to have a home of one's own, - to posses a little place, however small, - to be one's own lord and master. This desire is natural. It betokens a healthy mind, a worthy ambition, - a lofty ideal. There are many reasons why it is not to one's best interests to rent. Recall the most responsible men and women of any town and you will find they are the property owners. The man who does not own his home is looked upon by others as an underling or weakling. He is regarded in the eyes of his neighbors as lacking in initiative, in the eyes of his family he is considered unfortunate, in his own mind he realizes that he has never quite achieved success. Look about and see the men on small salaries who own their homes. They have toiled no harder than others, but rigid economy has made it possible to squeeze out a few dollars a month to apply to their house contract, and in after years they have something to show for the money expended. Why should we help to support our landlord? If a small amount of capital invested each month by those who have not the ready cash to pay for a house and lot will in the end provide a home, why not use these sums in that way instead of handling them to the landlord, enriching him at our own expense?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The classic timber-framed house is attractive, affordable, and easily expanded to meet the needs of a growing family. With the step-by-step instructions in this book you can build your own timber-framed house -- one that features a level of craftsmanship rare in modern construction. Following the traditional "hall-and-parlor" home design, architect and builder Jack Sobon carefully and clearly explains how to find the ideal building site; create a master plan; select the best tree species; hew and mill timbers; assemble the frame; install wall sheathing, windows, and doors; design and finish the interior; and expand on the plan. The basic design is easly adapted to meet different needs. One of the best-known and most distinctive figures in the timber-framing revival, Jack Sobon knows how to make home building affordable by using economical hand tools, taking control of the processing of building materials, and using inexpensive local supplies. His practice advice includes the latest knowledge on building a healthy house, integrating natural systems into the design, and finding effective home heating solutions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You can use this book to design a house for yourself with your family; you can use it to work with your neighbors to improve your town and neighborhood; you can use it to design an office, or a workshop, or a public building. And you can use it to guide you in the actual process of construction. After a ten-year silence, Christopher Alexander and his colleagues at the Center for Environmental Structure are now publishing a major statement in the form of three books which will, in their words, "lay the basis for an entirely new approach to architecture, building and planning, which will we hope replace existing ideas and practices entirely." The three books are The Timeless Way of Building, The Oregon Experiment, and this book, A Pattern Language. At the core of these books is the idea that people should design for themselves their own houses, streets, and communities. This idea may be radical (it implies a radical transformation of the architectural profession) but it comes simply from the observation that most of the wonderful places of the world were not made by architects but by the people. At the core of the books, too, is the point that in designing their environments people always rely on certain "languages," which, like the languages we speak, allow them to articulate and communicate an infinite variety of designs within a forma system which gives them coherence. This book provides a language of this kind. It will enable a person to make a design for almost any kind of building, or any part of the built environment. "Patterns," the units of this language, are answers to design problems (How high should a window sill be? How many stories should a building have? How much space in a neighborhood should be devoted to grass and trees?). More than 250 of the patterns in this pattern language are given: each consists of a problem statement, a discussion of the problem with an illustration, and a solution. As the authors say in their introduction, many of the patterns are archetypal, so deeply rooted in the nature of things that it seemly likely that they will be a part of human nature, and human action, as much in five hundred years as they are today.
