Math for Carpentry and Construction is designed specifically for carpentry and construction students, allowing them to learn and apply basic math skills in a very relatable context. Each unit begins with an explanation of the basic concept behind each math operation, followed by clear instructions for performing the operation, and a variety of carpentry- and construction-related practice problems to reinforce the concept. This format provides a practical approach to learn important math skills and troubleshooting skills that will be used in carpentry shops and construction sites. A new Appendix, Construction Diagrams and Terms, defines and illustrates key trade terms and components that students may have not yet been exposed to in their carpentry/construction program.

"From one of Fine Homebuilding's best-loved authors, Larry Haun, comes a unique story that looks at American home building from the perspective of twelve houses he has known intimately. Part memoir, part cultural history, A Carpenter's Life as Told by Houses takes the reader house by house over an arc of 100 years. Along with period photos, the author shows us the sod house in Nebraska where his mother was born, the frame house of his childhood, the production houses he built in the San Fernando Valley, and the Habitat for Humanity homes he devotes his time to now. It's an engaging read written by a veteran builder with a thoughtful awareness of what was intrinsic to home building in the past and the many ways it has evolved. Builders and history lovers will appreciate his deep connection to the natural world, yearning for simplicity, respect for humanity, and evocative notion of what we mean by "home.""--
