Wood-Frame House Construction

G. E. Sherwood / R. C. Stroh

The book presents sound principles for wood-frame house construction and suggestions for selecting suitable materials to assist the construction of a good house. It can be used as a working guide to modern construction practice and techniques, as a textbook, or as a standard to judge the quality of house construction. Dimensions of wood are always stated as nominal, as explained in the technical note on lumber grades. The book's organization reflects the general progression of activity in building a wood-frame house, from initial conception to completed structure. Certain steps inevitably cut across categories or fail to fit nearly into any scheme, but the order of presentation reflects the broad sequence of the building procedure.
