Modern Timber Engineering by Walter Fleming Scofield is a comprehensive guide to the design and construction of timber structures. The book covers the latest techniques and technologies used in modern timber engineering, including the use of computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) systems, laminated timber, and engineered wood products. It also includes detailed information on the properties of different types of timber, as well as the various methods used to join and fasten timber components.The book is divided into four sections, each covering a different aspect of timber engineering. The first section provides an overview of the history of timber construction and the properties of different types of timber. The second section covers the design of timber structures, including the use of load-bearing walls, trusses, and beams. The third section focuses on the construction of timber structures, including the use of prefabricated components and on-site assembly. The final section covers the maintenance and repair of timber structures, as well as the use of timber in sustainable construction.Throughout the book, the author provides numerous examples of timber structures from around the world, including bridges, towers, and buildings. The book is aimed at architects, engineers, and builders who are interested in the use of timber as a sustainable and versatile building material. It is also suitable for students of architecture and engineering who are interested in learning more about modern timber engineering.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
