Product Description The definitive design and construction industry source for building with wood—both sawn lumber and structural glued laminated timber. This edition contains the latest design procedures for timber construction. Information and recommendations are based on the most reliable technical data available and reflect commercial purposes found to be most practical. Revised to cover the 1991 National Design Specification for Wood from the National Forest Products Association, it includes annual supplements which will keep subscribers current with performance data, design criteria, sample specifications and other vital material between editions. | ||

thorough This book covers everything an engineer could ever need with regard to wood construction. From glulams to ply-wood this book has it all. This is the only reference necessary in order to design wood trusses and glulam arches. I found the book extremely useful in figuring various structural factors unique to wood construction(eg. checking and moisture content). This is the best resource for the structural, civil or mechanical engineer interested in timber construction. | ||
