Building construction and superintendence, by F.E. Kidder ...
Frank E. Kidder's multi-volume manual of building construction and superintendence, published by W.T. Comstock in New York in 1896 for American architects, builders and site superintendents. The plates are line drawings of roof trusses, framing joints and structural details, annotated with spans, member sizes and bolt callouts, giving designers ready diagrammatic geometry, hatched timber sections and hand-lettered dimension lines.
