Concrete Construction Made Easy - Turner, Leslie

Résumé :
This book is primarily intended for the use of architects, builders, and foremen who have concrete building work on hand for which the reinforced concrete details have not been prepared or cannot be quickly obtained. It is also hoped that it will be of assistance to engineers who find themselves responsible for occasional structural work but whose knowledge of concrete construction is limited. With the aid of the designs given it is possible to erect a small building, tank, retaining wall, etc., and the details and operations are described in as simple a manner as is possible with a somewhat complicated subject.

We are surrounded by people everywhere we go who are walking heroes, but you would never know it. I love telling their stories and inspiring those whose struggles may seem invisible to everyone else, but never to God. I do have a novel I am anxious to write, she notes. With the working title Helen of Antioch, it's going to be a historical fiction based loosely on the teenage journals of a woman near and dear to my heart who was born in the early 20th century, and passed away in 2010.
