Owen B. Maginnis Practical Centring, Treating of the Practice of Centring Arches

Annotation

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The work embraces each subject in detail, and in language that practical men can understand. I would especially commend it to the attention of students attending trade, technical, and architectural schools, as they will find it helpful in acquiring the practical knowledge of construction so essential to success. My best thanks are due to the builders, from whom I have obtained much of my information;. Also to the publisher, who has gotten up the book in a form to be a useful addition to the chest or book-shelf of every rising worker in the trade.
