Description: Tight, clean, flat, square, sharp book in DJ with some nicks and folds and tears. If you work in the building trade, this is a pretty good reference book. I wouldn't recommend it to a novice, but it does give some instruction on various methods. I use it when there is a question of strength, common usage or as a refresher on things I don't do often.Strength is shown in multiple tables for spans, load weights & usage. For instance, over a 10 foot span, can I get by with 2x6 joists, 24" on center, if I use bridging? This book will supply various tables showing me live & dead load weights for living & storage areas along with how much support I get if I use Hem/Fir rather than SPF. There will be some minor gaps in the coverage of newer technologies like LVL beams and some modern shapes of steel studs, but the basics have never changed and much more than the basics are dealt with. Load charts are easily found for the modern constructions like LVL beams.
