Synopsis
Author Ian Cramb was a fifth-generation stonemason who relied on traditional methods to create and restore beautiful stone structures. In this do-it-yourself manual for homeowners, masonry contractors, and restoration specialists, Cramb drew on his fifty years of life experience in the craft to cover restoration techniques for historic structures in the U.S. and Britain. The book covers various types of stone, stone-cutting, and traditional mortar mixes for walls, foundations, and buildings., Beginning with "Random Rubble" and Progressing through more complex projects such as fireplaces, stairs, arches, bridges, and more, Ian Cramb, a fifth-generation stonemason who relied on traditional methods to create and restore beautiful stone formations, gives detailed explanations of the restoration techniques involved with historic structures. The Art of the Stonemason also covers various types of stone, stone cutting, and traditional mortar mixes, which have demonstrated their utility in stone walls and buildings that have lasted for many centuries. Illustrated with updated photographs and the author's meticulous line drawings detailing his techniques. Book jacket., Drawing on five generations of family tradition as stonemasons in his Native Scotland, Ian Cramb created this masterful work to pass on his knowledge and experience to craftsmen who wish to learn the ancient, but still necessary, principles of the stonemason's art.
