Publisher's Synopsis
Volume 1 of 3....this book contains 187 housing design & construction problems I've observed and recorded throughout a 43-year period working as a carpenter, customer service repairman, superintendent, and project manager. These problems and mistakes actually occurred on real housing projects. The value of this book lies in forewarning the reader of design & construction mistakes before having to discover them the hard way. This book can spare you from having to master that portion of the learning curve that covers the topics in this book.
