A multi-volume trade reference on architecture, carpentry, and building issued by the American Technical Society in Chicago in 1912 for builders, draftsmen, and correspondence-course students. The plates are line-drawn mechanical drawing exercises: orthographic and isometric projections of blocks and prisms, dashed construction lines, dimension arrows with angle callouts, lettering-practice grids, and layout diagrams that supply ready-made geometric linework, technical annotation styles, and plate borders.
