A builders' estimating manual by John Todd Rea, published by Batsford in London in 1902, written for contractors and quantity surveyors pricing materials and labour. The figures are small line diagrams of beams, joists, footings and openings, drawn in plain outline with hatched masonry, dashed dimension arrows and inch-and-foot annotations useful as technical ornament or measured-drawing motifs.
