The book does not limit itself in scope to serving only as a common history. Rather, it provides critical analysis of HTC in terms of construction methods, design, technical specifications, and historical performance under fire conditions. As such, this book provides readers with a truly comprehensive understanding and exploration of heavy timber construction in the United States and its performance under fire conditions. 000755988 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed June 29, 2016). 000755988 650_0 $$aHeavy timber construction. 000755988 650_0 $$aWooden-frame buildings$$xFires and fire prevention. 000755988 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aHeitz, Jesse.$$tFire resistance in American heavy timber construction : history and preservation.$$d[Cham, Switzerland] : Springer, c2016$$z9783319321264$$w(DLC) 2016938527 000755988 852__ $$bebk 000755988 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-32128-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000755988 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:755988$$pGLOBAL_SET 000755988 980__ $$aEBOOK 000755988 980__ $$aBIB 000755988 982__ $$aEbook 000755988 983__ $$aOnline 000755988 994__ $$a92$$bISE
