Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the science and practice of wood preservation, a critical concern in the 19th century, as wooden structures like bridges, buildings, and even paving blocks were susceptible to rot and decay. The author, a surgeon in the US Army, meticulously examines the leading wood preservation methods of the time, using a blend of scientific analysis and practical experimentation. Through a series of laboratory tests, the author meticulously dissects various treatments, including those involving mineral salts, hydrocarbon substances, and heat-based processes. The book provides a detailed account of the chemical reactions involved in each technique, exploring their effectiveness in preventing both wet and dry rot, as well as their impact on the strength and durability of the wood itself. The author's observations not only illuminate the scientific understanding of wood preservation in the 19th century but also offer valuable insights into the trade-offs between different methods, highlighting the need to balance preservation with maintaining the structural integrity of the wood. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781332189168_0
