Modern Bricklayer - A Practical Work on Bricklaying in all its Branches - Volume III e-bog

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 "e;The Modern Bricklayer"e;, a detailed guide to all aspects of bricklaying, including slating, tiling, planning, materials, tools, and more. Contents include: "e;House Drains"e;, "e;Egg-Shaped and Circular Sewers"e;, "e;Sand Courses"e;, "e;Retaining Walls"e;, "e;Reinforced Brickwork"e;, "e;Arches"e;, "e;Cornices"e;, "e;Gauged Brickwork: Introduction"e;, "e;Gauged Work-Various Forms of Arches"e;, "e;Gauges Work-Arches"e;, "e;Gauged Work: Ninches, Panels, and Mouldings"e;, "e;Terra-cotta and Glazed Ware"e;, 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.
