SANITARY FITTINGS AND PLUMBING.
By G. LISTER SUTCLIFFE, A.R.I.B.A., M.S.I., etc. With 212 Illustrations.
Sanitary science is ever rapidly progressing-new discoveries and inventions are continually pressing for notice, and old problems are being solved in new ways. In this book an attempt has been made to enunciate the general principles now governing the design of sanitary work in buildings, and also to describe and illustrate the most important modern sanitary fittings and the plumber's work in connection with them.

ROADS: Their Construction and Maintenance,
WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO ROAD MATERIAL.
By ALLAN GREENWELL, A.M.I.C.E., F.G.S., etc, and
J. V. ELSDEN, B.Sc, Lond., F.G.S.
With 48 Illustrations.
The authors are of opinion that there is need for a work of this kind of an elementary nature, out dealing with such difficulties as are sure to confront the student. Perhaps no problem is more difficult than a proper appreciation of the relative value of different kinds of road stone, and much space has therefore been devoted to this branch of the subject, in the belief that no one can become an efficient road engineer or surveyor unless he understands the nature and properties of the material at his disposal,

By FREDERIC RICHARD FARROW, F.R.I.B.A. This Manual is written with a view-to meet the requirements of the student, to show him how he should write a specification, so that when he has learnt the method and general principles, he may apply them to the particular exigencies of any building he may design.

QUANTITIES AND QUANTITY TAKING.
By W. E. DAVIS.
A reliable Handbook for the student pure and simple, its scope being limited to the method of procedure in the production of a good Bill of Quantities, leaving out those questions of law and other matters that do not come within the province of those for whom the work is designed. The examples given, whilst intentionally simple, to avoid confusing the student by a mass of detail, will be found to cover almost every phase of the subject.

STRUCTURAL IRON AND STEEL.
By W. N. TWELVETREES, M.I.M.E.
With 234 Illustrations. In this elementary treatise the author has endeavoured to present in a regular sequence some of the more important details relative to iron and steel as applied to structural work. So far as building construction is concerned, the age of steel is, no doubt, still in its infancy, and if the architect of the future is to be master of his profession in all its branches, he should be thoroughly familiar with all the details of iron and steel construction.
