More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
Brickwork for Apprentices has been the established reference on brickwork for generations of bricklayers. Continuously in print since 1944, John Hodge's classic text has now been fully revised in its fifth edition by Malcolm Thorpe - who acted as a CITB Advisor and was involved in the draughting of the Intermediate Construction Award syllabus (bricklaying route) - to cover the brickwork craft-related units of the latest Construction Awards and related Trowel Occupations NVQs from CITB / City & Guilds at Levels 2 and 3.
The fifth edition incorporates extended coverage on the relatively new area of thin joint systems, to match the latest industry-based requirements and technical developments in the field. Content has been brought fully in line with recent changes to the Building Regulations, ensuring that this text will remain an essential reference for qualified bricklayers and other professionals working in the construction industry, as well as NVQ students new to the industry and wishing to embark on a career in bricklaying.
A new feature in this edition is the inclusion of multiple choice questions at the back of the book, matched to the current NVQ requirements, to provide students of the CITB / City & Guilds Trowel Occupations NVQs with essential practice and revision for exam preparation.
* New edition fully revised by a former CITB Advisor, involved in the draughting of the ICA syllabus
* Classic text, continuously in print since 1944!
* Multiple Choice Questions match the requirements of current CITB / C&G courses to provide essential practice for NVQ students

Format:Paperback
A hundred questions that you needed to know about bricklaying answered and a thousand you didn't even know could be asked.
This was set course reading for all bricklaying apprentices very detailed and very practical.
Probably the best book that you could get if you want a good start & reference work on the topic.

I was looking for something to help my grandson with his bricklaying apprenticeship to study at home, and this is a basic book with illustrations that give details of a great variety of styles and bonds. Perhaps he'll build his mum a house one day!Brickwork for Apprentices
