CARPENTRY AND MASONRY LESSONS (15 lessons) This manual is intended for use as a training guide and reference text for engineer personnel responsible for planning and executing theater of operations (TO) construction. It provides techniques and procedures for frame construction, preparation and use of bills of materials (BOMs), building layout, forming for concrete slabs and foundations, framing and finish carpentry, roof framing and coverings, bridge and wharf construction, and the materials used for these operations. Chapter 1. - Construction Drawings q Architectural Symbols, Line Conventions, and Material Conventions Chapter 2. - Construction Planning and Materials Chapter 3. - Bills of Materials Chapter 4. - Building Layout and Foundation o Laying Out a Rectangular Building Site o Laying Out an Irregular Building Site Chapter 5. - Forms for Concrete o Foundation and Footing Forms o Floor Joists for Platform Construction o Plumbed Posts and Straightened Walls Chapter 7. - Roof Systems and Coverings o Asphalt and Asbestos-Cement Roofing o Asphalt-Prepared Roll Roofings Chapter 8. - Doors and Windows q Interior Wall and Partition Coverings Chapter 10. - Nonstandard Fixed Bridge Chapter 11. - Timber-Pile Wharves o Pile Clusters and Corner Fenders o Floating Log Fenders (Camels) Appendix A. - Conversion Tables Appendix B. Carpentry Abbreviations and Symbols Appendix C. - Manpower Estimates Appendix D. - General Information o Ceramic and Other Specialty Tiles This course is designed to give you practical knowledge of basic carpentry. You will learn to read, understand, and interpret construction prints (also called working drawings); to identify, use, and requisition building materials; and to care for and use hand tools and power machinery. Lesson 1: Construction Prints and Building Materials q Part A: Construction Prints for Buildings q Part B: Bill of Materials (BOMs) q Part A: Care and Use of Hand Tools q Part B: Care and Use of Power Machinery The Carpentry II subcourse will provide you with enough knowledge to construct floor systems, stairs, wall systems (including the installation of windows and door), and roof systems of wooden structures. Lesson 2: Wall-System and Stairway Construction q Part C: Roof-Covering Material This subcourse concludes the instruction on carpentry. It discusses the requirements for competent cabinet work, explaining the kinds and selections of woods, the classification and uses of woodworking joints, and the standards for their employment. The selection of materials for constructing wooden articles, the assembling of parts into units, and the steps taken in a final inspection of completed work are presented in sequence. 3. HEAVY TIMBER CONSTRUCTION The Army's scientific advancement places an ever-increasing demand on the technical capabilities of its personnel. The technical know-how of greater numbers of troops must be improved through training. Each individual is obligated to keep abreast of this progress. Construction print reading is a key skill for technical students. Fortunately, a formal education is not essential for achieving proficiency in this important subject; the study of correspondence courses such as this can provide the essential skills. q Lesson 1: Principles and Methods q Lesson 2: Architectural Drawings q Lesson 3: Utilities Drawings q Lesson 4: Heating, Air-Conditioning, and Refrigeration Drawings q Lesson 5: Bills of Materials q Appendix B: Conversion Tables q Appendix C: Extract TM 5-704 The objective of this subcourse is to provide you with the fundamentals of planning and supervising the construction of frame structures which comprise the basic type of building in a theater of operations. It will also orient you in the fundamentals of construction print reading. You will learn about building layout procedures; framing details of substructures, superstructures, and roofs; kinds and properties of timber; and planning and estimating material and labor requirements for frame construction. Emphasis is on simplified theater-of-operations construction. However, some details of conventional construction are also included for use as a general guide and for use in rehabilitation and repair of existing q Lesson 1. Construction Print Reading - Building Layout and Substructures. q Lesson 2. Superstructures - Framing. q Lesson 3. Roofing-Finishing Details. q Lesson 4. Materials Estimating. q Lesson 5. Construction Methods and Standards - Planning Estimates. WOOD HANDBOOK - WOOD AS AN ENGINEERING MATERIAL Summarizes information on wood as an engineering material. Presents properties of wood and wood-based products of particular concern to the architect and engineer.
