3 comments about The Manual of Below-Grade Waterproofing Systems.
- With the oldest known waterproofing going back 4,000 years you'd think someone would have recorded the wisedom of the ages on how to keep water out of the building. Finally someone has! Justin's book is the best that is available. This book should be on the shelf of anyone that is in any way involved with waterproofing. This could be the text for a comprehensive college course if any professor were ever so inclined.
Thank you Justin.
- A good book and very good in depth knowledge of proper installation of systems. How ever a previous review mentioned a non bias approach....I beg to differ...it looks to me that Mr. Henshell is very pro and friendly with certain manufacturers.

1 comments about Rubber Technology: Compounding and Testing for Performance.
- The book is very good, the only sugestion is some improvement in chapters that refers about rubber polymers like Viton as an example, that would be more complete with cure pakage, and with more recipes for uses like seals, hoses, etc

1 comments about The PC Technician's Pocket Field Guide.
- This is one great little book, I have learned so much.
How many time have you bought a Guide book only to be so confused not being able to make head or tails out of it thinking "What the heck are they talking about!" and it ends up on your book self collecting dust.
That will not be the case with this book. It is written so well and in a way, that any person, no mater what level of Technicial background you may have, you will be able to understand.
Just think you can impress your friends with your new found knowlege.

3 comments about Materials Handbook (Handbook).
- This book is most helpful to those who have to find information about materials outside their area of expertise. The listing is extremely broad, and unlike other books, does not just focus on engineered or structural materials. The negative side of this breadth is the small amount of information on each material (sometimes only one or two paragraphs). This small amount of information, however, is usually enough to direct a search into a more productive direction. I have benefitted from this book on the last 4 jobs I have held. Definitely worth having.
- I have not read the most edition, but I have read an older one. I actually read it cover to cover. I find it fascinating to learn the history of various alloys and composites. Pretty much anything you want to know about any material is here. For anyone who has any interest in science, building, woodworking, sculpture, etc. this book will be extremely useful.
- The "Materials Handbook" (15th Ed.) is now one of my favorite reference books. The variety of materials that it documents is pretty amazing. This is a great book for the scientist, engineer & layperson alike. A reader can quickly find the basic description & properties for alloys, elements, non-metallic substances, plastics, wood, liquids, etc., etc. If you can name it, it's probably in this book. There's one caveat; even at 1244 pages, it cannot contain every useful fact pertaining to a particular substance. Given that practical limitation, I suspect that many of us could learn exactly what we wanted to know about a substance and others can search other references that focus exclusively on specific materials in whatever category. Again, it's a very valuable reference and it is a great addition to any technical library.
