"Carpentry" by Ira Samuel Griffith is a practical guide on the fundamentals of carpentry written in the early 20th century. The text serves as an elementary treatise intended for apprentices, vocational and trade school students, highlighting essential techniques and principles of carpentry, with a focus on roof framing and structural integrity. At the start of "Carpentry," the author introduces the importance of foundational work in carpentry, emphasizing the role of carpenters in laying out foundations alongside masons. Griffith discusses the tools required for accurate measurements, such as the builder's transit and the Y-level, detailing how to properly establish a building site's grade line. He outlines the processes for excavating foundations, constructing footings, and selecting appropriate materials, providing a thorough overview of foundational principles essential for successful carpentry projects.
