What other Engineers are saying about this Manual:

· Takes the standard timber book to the next level. Many subjects and examples not found in other book.

   -- Clayton A. Pharaoh, S.E., ARCE Dept., California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo

· [I] was impressed with the degree of detail and analysis . . . your book should fit well into the available reference materials for wood frame construction. You've shown a methodology which is well suited to accumulating the necessary design information and solving the components in an orderly fashion. Your audience should include not only the student academic community, but also the practicing engineer. We all appreciate a fresh look at wood frame design.

  -- Barry H. Welliver, S.E., Consulting Engineer

· As a longtime supporter of safer building practices, we are pleased to see new reference sources made available to engineers, students and professionals alike. We look forward to your publication as a significant tool in the preparation of better educated professionals.

  -- Richard R. Chapman, Manager, Simpson Strong-tie Company, Inc.

· I reviewed your new book [Timber Solutions Manual] for accuracy and clarity in the application of the 1994 UBC provisions to the design of wood structures, as well as the application of the Code prescribed design loads to structural design in general. Your book fills the long existing gap of step by step presentation of solutions of most of the common and some not so common problems encountered in the design of wood structures. I find your book to be a must tool for the student of wood design and a very valuable addition to the library of the practicing structural engineer. My congratulations for your efforts in putting this document together and I hope you will keep updating it as the codes and the standards of the practice keep evolving.
