O knihe

Excerpt from A Lecture the Dry Rot: And on the Most, Effectual Means of Preventing It; Delivered Before the Institute of British Architects, April 3, 1837

The other kinds of decay to which timber is liable are termed the common rot, and the dry ret.

The former, Sir John Barrow considers to be occasioned by alternate exposure to the vicissitudes of the weather, - to moisture and dryness, and to heat and cold,-hence, frequent at the point where a pile is between wind and water, or where a beam enters a wall: in the latter case, the progress is from without inwards. (supplement 'to Ency. Brit, dry bot.) As the causes here are extrinsic, protecting the wood against them is often sufficient; for this pur pose painting, coating with tar, &c., are had recourse to.
