1907 build truss roof rafter steel slate loads columns
This is the vintage hardcover book titled: Cyclopedia of Architecture, Carpentry and Building, vol III; Strength of Materials, Statics, Roof Trusses, and Hardware, copyright 1907 -1912 by American Technical Society, printed in 1913, 392 pages, 6.5 x 9.5". The book has quarter red leather over red cloth covers, red marbled endpapers, and marbled fore-edges. It is in good plus condition: the covers have moderate edge wear; spine head has has a small closed tear on one edge at the head, back cover has two 1 gouges in cloth at top edge that permeates to board, some light scuffing of boards, moderate soil and gold on spine is bright.

This purpose of this huge, vintage, authoritative book is to educate. The authors provide detailed technical information and hundreds of black white photographs, illustrations, diagrams and line drawings of: vintage tools, machinery and vehicles; all sorts of truss roof designs for all sorts of building construction, with the locations indicated when appropriate and photos of construction.
These photos provide a wonderful view of the past that are certainly worthy of framing.
Please see below for more detailed information and examples of the illustrations and photography that this book has to offer.
