Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book promotes the Bethell process for preserving timber from decay and the attacks of marine worms. Invented by the author, this technique treats timber in closed vessels using creosote oil. The author advocates its use for land and marine construction, noting that creosote coagu…lates timber's albumen, seals its pores, and protects it from insects and worms. The author examines other preservation methods, such as steeping, vital suction, and pressing in sealed containers. After comparing these techniques to creosoting, the author presents evidence from engineers and scientists regarding the success of their process. This book also includes information on the durability of creosoted timber and its proven resistance to decay and marine worms. Additionally, the author discusses the impact of creosoting on the preservation of railway ties, telegraph poles, and other wooden structures. The book concludes by emphasizing the importance of creosoting in extending the lifespan of timber, particularly in marine environments, making it an invaluable resource for engineers, builders, and anyone working with timber preservation.
