To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
1. 12 12s. Llfd. 3. The roof of a house is of a true pitch ; and the house measures 40 feet 6 inches in length, within the walls, and 20 feet 6 inches in breadth; how many squares of roofing are contained therein ? * Ms. 12. 45375. Note. All timbers in a roof are measured in the same manner as in floors, except king-posts, &c. Such as A in the annexed figure, where there is a necessity for cutting out parallel pieces of wood from the sides, in order that the ends of the braces B, that come agai...nst them, may have what the workmen call a square hutment. To measure king-posts for workman- ship, take their breadth and depth at the widesf place, and multiply these together, and the product by the length. To find the quantity of materials, if the pieces sawn out are 2- inches broad, or upwards, and more than 2 feet S>* long, they are con- ^^\ sidered as pieees of f ~^ timber fit for use. In measuring these pieces, the shortest length must always be taken, because the sawing of them from the king-post, renders a part of them useless.
