Summary "Practical Stair Building and Handrailing" by W.H. Wood is a technical guide focused on the systematic methods of constructing stairs and railings, presumably written in the late 19th century. The publication appears to be aimed at carpenters and builders, providing comprehensive information on the principles of stair design, geometry, and the practical application of various construction techniques. The book emphasizes the importance of mastering the elementary aspects of stair building for those looking to achieve proficient results in this craft. The opening of the work introduces its objective: to aid readers in acquiring a solid understanding of stair building techniques through detailed explanations and illustrations. It highlights the necessity of foundational knowledge, notably the design parameters such as treads, risers, landings, and types of stair configurations like winder and straight flights. Wood's meticulous approach focuses on practical problems and offers clear diagrams and descriptions, assuring readers that each method has been thoroughly tested for accuracy and effectiveness. The tone reflects a commitment to teaching carpentry skills that align with industry standards, making it a valuable resource for those engaged in or entering the building profession.
