Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the importance of understanding the use of creosote oil in treating timber against the destructive effects of marine borers, primarily the teredo. Drawing from historical uses and applications, the author analyzes various methods and factors influencing the efficacy of creosote treatment, exploring the chemical properties of creosote oils and their impact on the preservation of timber. The book emphasizes the need for stringent specifications and quality control measures to ensure the effectiveness of creosote treatment and highlights potential pitfalls such as adulteration and improper application techniques. By providing valuable insights into the chemistry and mechanics of creosote treatment, this book serves as a comprehensive guide for engineers, contractors, and professionals involved in timber preservation, helping them achieve optimal results and extend the lifespan of timber structures in marine environments. 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.…

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book promotes the Bethell process for preserving timber from decay and the attacks of marine worms. Invented by the author, this technique treats timber in closed vessels using creosote oil. The author advocates its use for land and marine construction, noting that creosote coagulates timber's albumen, seals its pores, and protects it from insects and worms. The author examines other preservation methods, such as steeping, vital suction, and pressing in sealed containers. After comparing these techniques to creosoting, the author presents evidence from engineers and scientists regarding the success of their process. This book also includes information on the durability of creosoted timber and its proven resistance to decay and marine worms. Additionally, the author discusses the impact of creosoting on the preservation of railway ties, telegraph poles, and other wooden structures. The book concludes by emphasizing the importance of creosoting in extending the lifespan of timber, particularly in marine environments, making it an invaluable resource for engineers, builders, and anyone working with timber preservation.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the recent history and scientific complexity behind the problem of wood decay, exploring the earliest industrial attempts to preserve wood and the lessons learned from their successes and failures. The author draws on scientific reports, expert opinions, and historical analysis to demonstrate the importance of understanding the chemical processes and biological factors that cause wood to decay - and how to prevent it. Overall, the book argues that "the art of preserving wood" is best understood through hands-on experience, case studies, and careful observation of existing structures built with treated lumber, and that the insights from this approach have significant and substantial commercial value in the construction of railroads, bridges, and piers. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
