Sinossi
Excerpt from Specifications for Practical Architecture: Preceded by an Essay on the Decline of Excellence in the Structure and in the Science of Modern English Buildings
V. The Specifications contained in this work, are entirely of my own composition more than forty of them I have chosen from a large collection lying by me, of papers composed for works intended for execution; and the works of thirty-two of these have been carried into absolute execution, principally under my own immediate superintendence: they have there fore, of necessity, some of that precision which can alone result from the consideration of works seriously intended to be undertaken: the remaining specifications, which have indeed more of the character of elementary details than of complete works, were purposely composed for this publica tion, and are intended less as complete specifications, than for amalgama tion with others.
