Book excerpt: Excerpt from Foundrymen's Handbook: Based on Data Sheets From the Foundry, Revised and Supplemented to Represent and Interpret Modern Practice Foundry work involves principles of almost every branch of engi neering to which the skilled foundrymen must add a knowledge of the essentials of chemistry, metallurgy and pattern design and construe tion. The miscellaneous character of the information herein presented reflects the wide diversity of general and scientific data that should be available to every foundryman and should find a place in every cast ing plant. At least an elementary knowledge of foundry work is essen tial for the patternmaker and he also will find this handbook a valuable addition to his reference library. A large part of the data herewithpresented represents original research and study; some of it details in concise form, practice that has been standard for many years; many of the calculations are included because of their direct bearing upon foundry and pattern shop pro-, hlems while the specifications represent the most recent standards adopted or revised by the societies by which they have been prepared.
