Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive guide to the application of masonry in civil engineering. Firstly, it discusses the varieties of stones used, and the tests that can be carried out on them to ensure their suitability and quality. Among the topics covered are strength, durability, and texture. The author explores the different methods of dressing these stones to achieve the correct form for specific purposes. There is an examination of the types of bonds that can be employed in the construction of masonry walls, as well as the wide variety of stonework finishes. The book concludes with an exploration of the labour involved in working with stone, from the tools involved through to the preparation of surfaces. This book will be a useful companion for both students and practitioners of civil engineering.
