History of construction; Roof construction; Dendrochronology
Abstract :
[en] Resarch has made considerable progress in the field of history of roofs,particularly thanks the contribution of dendrochronology. This book is the result of collaboration between architects, university sholars, Belgian and French dendrochronologists, and offers a synthesis with regard to carpentry from 11th through the 19th century, from north of the Loire to Belgium. It contains a typological and chronological classification with 300 examples of carpentry constructions, and a catalogue of beautiful models preserved at the Center for reaserch on Historical Monuments in PAris. It is a valuable reference work for all those - art historians, architects, building restores - who are interested in historic carpentry
