all the VValls of 3 ½ Bricks thick in 1 ½ Brick thick as in the following VVork Then likewise Reduce the Sum of the Third Column 87 Feet 10 Inches after the same Method into 1 Brick and ½ thick which you will find to be 175 Feet 8 Inches as in the following VVork Thus having Reduced the Sum of each Column in this Example into 1 Brick and ½ thick Add them all together and their Sum will be 686 Feet 9 Inches 10 Seconds which is the Content of all the Brick-VVork Required in 1 Brick and ½ thick which Reduce into Rods by Dividing it by 272 the Number of Feet contained in a Rod so will you have 2 Rods and 142 272 of a Rod which is somthing above ½ a Rod for the Content of the Brick-Work to the first floor required as in the following Work What hath been said I suppose is sufficient to Explain the beforegoing Rules so that to give you any more Examples of that kind will be needles But because there is some Walls that have Watet-tables that is Built some 3 some 5 Feet High which Water-table is many times ½ a Brick thick and some times more I shall shew you how to Measure any such Wall To Measure which first find the Content of the Wall as before taught and Reduce the same into Brick and half Thick then find the Content of the Water-Table after the same manner and likewise Reduce it into 1 ½ Brick Thick then Add the Content of the Water-Table to the Content of the Wall and the Sum is the Content of the said Wall with the Water-Table which Reduce into Rods as before Taught Example Admit rhere is a Wall that is 2 Bricks Thick being 91 Feet 6 Inches Long and 17 Feet 3 Inches high which hath a Water-Table ½ a Brick Thick and 3 Feet High whose Content is required To find which first find the Content of the Wall by Multiplying the Heighth into the Length and the Product will be 1578 Feet 4 Inches 6 Seconds which Reduce into 1 ½ Brick Thick by Multiplying it by 4 the Number of half Bricks contained in the given Thickneses and Dividing the Product by 3 the Number of half Bricks contained in 1½ Brick and so will you find the Content of the Wall in Brick and ½ Thick to be 2104 Feet 6 Inches as in the following Work Then find the Content of the Water-Table by Multiplying it's Heigth 3 Feet into the Length of the Wall 91 Feet 6 Inches and the Product will be 274 Feet 6 Inches which Reduce into 1½ Brick Thick which because the Thickness of the said Water-Table is a ½ Brick Thick is done by the Dividing by 3 and the Quotient will be 91 Feet 6 Inches for the Content of the said Water-Table in Brick and ½ as in the Following Work Then Add the Content of the Wall in a Brick and half Thick before found to be 2104 Feet 6 Inches to the Content of the Water-Table in 1½ Brick thick and their Sum will be 2196 Feet for the Content of the Wall Required which you must Reduce into Rods as before taught so will you find 8 Rods and 20 Feet of Brick-Work to be in the said Wall as in the following Work How to Measure Chimnies The Common way allowed by all Measurers is thus girt the Chimney Round below the Mantle-Tree if it be in a Wood Building where the Wall of the House doth go to make the Back of the Chimney and take the girt of the Chimny for the length and the heighth of the Room for the Breadth and then Multiply the one into the other and the Product take for the Content in the same thickness as the Jaumes are on which must be Reduced into 1½ Brick But if the Chimney stands against a Brick Wall then the Wall at the Back being the same with the Wall of the House and therefore being Measured as Part of the Wall they only girt it Round to the Wall and Multiply that into the height of the Room and take the Product for the Content of the Chimney in the same thickness as the Jaums are on which you must Reduce as before into 1 ½ Brick thick Example Admit there is a Chimney whose girt round below the Mantle Tree is 10 Feet 6 Inches and the height of the Room where the same stands 9 Feet the Jaums of which Chimny is 2 Bricks thick whose Content is required To perform which Multiply the girt 10 Feet 6 Inches into the height of the Room 9 Feet and the Product will give 94 Feet 6 Inches for the Content of the said Chimny in the same thickness as the Jaumes is off which ●s 2 Bricks thick which you mu●t Reduce into 1 ½ Brick thick as before directed so will you find the Content thereof in Brick and one half to be 129 Feet as in the following Work Having by some of the before going methods found the Content of all the Chimnies you are next to find the Content of Shafts to perform which you must girt them about in the narrowest place and take that for the breadth and their height for the Length and multiply one into the other and the Product will be the Content the Shaft or Shafts in the same thickness as their breadth is of for you must understand that they are Measured as if they were a Solid Peice of Brick-Work which you must Reduce into 1 ½ Brick thick How to Measure Tyling Tyling is Measured by the Square Containing 100 Feet and is in every respect the same with that of Roofing taught in Measuring Carpenters Work Example Admit there is a Roof of a Building that is Tyled the length of which Building from the out-side of the Wall at one End to the out side of the Wall at the other End is 15 Feet and the Breadth from the out-side of the one Wall to the out-side of the other 9 Feet 6 Inches and it be required to find the Content of the said Tyling which you will find to be 2 Squares 1 Foot 3 Inches and 81 100 of an Inch. Thus much of Measuring of Artificers Work relating to Building I presume what hath been said is sufficient for the meanest Capacity to understand how to Measure any sort of Building Timber Stone or any sort of Body whatsoever FINIS Advertisement of Choice new Books lately Printed for and Published by Tho.
