Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Inspector's Handbook of Reinforced Concrete
With the strides made in the past few years in the reinforced concrete building construction, the de mand for inspectors or clerks of the works having experience in this construction has been far greater than the supply. Those architects or engineers who have specialized in this construction have had applications from inspectors continually who wish to avail themselves of contact with this work under the direction of specialists. The authors' experience in selecting men to represent their firm in this capacity has led them to publish this little volume with the hope that it would fill a place in the literature on reinforced concrete not covered by existing books. Personal contact with the inspectors and their view point of various details of the work convince us of the necessity of such a book of instruction. While not endeavoring to inform the inspector of all his duties, this volume is written to point out the essentials gov erning the construction of this class of buildings.
