Household Engineering; Scientific Management in the Home

Household Engineering; Scientific Management in the Home

General Books publication date: 2009 Original publication date: 1919 Original Publisher: American school of home economics Subjects: Home economics Notes: This is a black and white OCR reprint of the original. It has no illustrations and there may be typos or missing text. When you buy the General Books edition of this book you get free trial access to Million-Books.com where you can select from more than a million books for free. Excerpt: HOUSEHOLD ENGINEERING HELPFUL HOUSEHOLD TOOLS THERE is a great contrast between methods of housework in the United States and in other countries, with the balance of convenience, labor-saving and easier methods in the American housewife's favor. The reason for this is that in no other country has mechanical invention been applied so extensively and successfully to all the different tasks of the home. The inventiveness of the Yankee is proverbial, and he has turned this quality to the making of mechanical labor-savers not only in his own shop and office, but for the benefit of the homemaker as well. There are on the market today literally thousands of household tools, devices and equipment for every possible need of the home. It only remains for the homemaker to choose among them wisely. Another reason for the great supply and demand for household labor savers in this country is that the American homemaker has to face the increasingly complex problem of scarce domestic help. Even today in other countries service cost has been low, and one can secure a cook for $12 or a housemaid for $8 a month. With such cheap labor, the need for the mechanical replacers of labor, or "mechanical servants," has not been keenly felt there. In the Copyright 1913, Home Economic Association. United States, according to estimates, only 8 percent of all families employ even one servant permanently. This means that 92 percent of homemakers are performing their own household tasks. It is to this class of women who are actively concerned in the wo...

Detail Practice: Digital Processes

Detail Practice: Digital Processes

These days, a computer is as much a part of every household s standard equipment as a refrigerator, and yet the explosion of computer technology in the last several decades has transformed the daily life of every member of society far more than even utopians would ever have allowed themselves to dream. No wonder, then, that from design to production, architecture too is becoming more and more subject to digital influences. The range of those influences stretches from the classical computer programs used in design and presentation to media-supported design processes all the way to computerized production techniques, to say nothing of industrialized bricklayer robots. From measurement to planning and production, archi-tecture is the product of a closely coordinated digital pro-cess chain. What influence do digital design and production methods have on contemporary architecture? How are these new methods changing architecture and the way it is created? Where does the potential of digital media for architecture lie? What are the areas in which every individual firm can begin to use them? What are the advantages of working electronically? How and at what cost can these methods be integrated into the day-to-day work of the professional architect? This publication offers answers to these and many other questions on all aspects of the digital design and construction process.

Cockshutt: The Complete Story

Cockshutt: The Complete Story

Cockshutt tractor is not a household term to you? Perhaps you have heard they were built in Canada, and you thought they had something to do with those orange CO-OPs Farm Bureau used to sell? Well, once you read Cockshutt: The Complete Story, one of ASAEs newest books, you will realize there is a lot more to Cockshutt tractors than you imagined! Cockshutt: The Complete Story fills a long-standing need for background information, technical data and photographs of tractors produced by Cockshutt Farm Equipment, Ltd. and its predecessor, Cockshutt Plow Company, Ltd. Historic background on the Company and the family who managed it sheds light on a line of implements and the man who affected Canadian agricultural growth as much as John Deere in the United States. An overview of U.S.-built models sold under the Cockshutt name in Canada by the Cockshutt Plow Co., Ltd. is also included. Additionally, there is much background on the history of Farm Bureaus National Farm Machinery Cooperative, with a discussion of its marketing operation. Presentation of the tractors they sold in the years prior to their agreement to sell Cockshutts is also a part of this book. The reader will find this compilation a simple reference to quickly differentiate various tractor models manufactured by Cockshutt between 1946 and 1962. Restorers will find specific technical data regarding each model paint, decal, and parts information. Both black-and-white and color photographs offer correct examples of original or restored tractors. University of Nebraska test data is used throughout to compare Cockshutts attributes with the competition. Key patents and other innovative contributions built into Cockshutt implements, which ultimately impacted U.S. manufacturers, are highlighted as well. To complete this book, numerous thumb-nail sketches are included, which outline the associated companies and men whose entrepreneurial exploits directly contributed to Cockshutts successes. This book is for enthusiasts collectors, restorers, and people who simply want to learn Cockshutts background and the impact of Cockshutt on the world.

Plenti and Grase: Food and Drink in a Sixteenth-Century Household

Plenti and Grase: Food and Drink in a Sixteenth-Century Household

This is an important study of the household affairs - especially as they relate to the provisioning and consumption of food and drink - of the Willoughby family of Wollaton Hall in Nottingham and Middleton Hall in Warwickshire. Made wealthy by inheritance, coal mining and iron smelting, they built a Tudor wonder-house at Wollaton, designed by the architect Robert Smythson. The survival of their archive allows close analysis of their domestic arrangements. For too long, food history has consisted of rummages among old cookbooks and juicy extracts from published diaries, with little serious work done on private archives and financial records. In consequence, we have much anecdote and little hard evidence. This book aims to redress the balance. Drawing upon the household accounts, Mark Dawson studies the patterns of food purchasing and supply, whether from markets and merchants or from the family's own estates. He models the dietary intake both of the family and its servants, reconstructs the kitchen administration and organization, and links the Willoughbys' experience to that of England as a whole, especially in relation to dietary and culinary change. There was a great deal going on in the Tudor kitchen: styles of cookery were altering, new foodstuffs were being added to the discoveries overseas. A series of chapters treats the main categories of foods: grains, meats, fish, fruit and vegetables. There is discussion of drinks, whether wine or beer (particularly the shift from ale to beer as the standard beverage). There is an account of the strategies of purchase, preservation and storage of foods, of the kitchen equipment, and of the kitchen staffing and operation. And there is an account of the family of Willoughby itself, whose great house at Wollaton survives as the museum of the City of Nottingham. Plenti and Grase will appeal to historians and general readers interested in Tudor England, to culinary historians interested in the development of the modern kitchen, to local students wishing to discover more about Midland history, and to anyone curious about how these great houses were run, and the life that went on inside their walls.

Electronic Waste Management (Issues in Environmental Science and Technology)

Electronic Waste Management (Issues in Environmental Science and Technology)

Electronic waste includes such items as TVs, computers, LCD and plasma displays, and mobile phones, as well as a wide range of household, medical and industrial equipment which are simply discarded as new technologies become available. Huge and growing quantities of waste are discarded every year and this waste contains toxic and carcinogenic compounds which can pose a risk to the environment. However, if handled correctly, electronic waste presents a valuable source of secondary raw materials. This book brings together a group of leading experts in the management of electrical and electronic waste to provide an up-to-date review of the scale of the waste problem, the impact of recent legislation such as the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE) and the "restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment" directive (RoHS), and of current and future methods for treatment, recycling and disposal of this waste. The book discusses these latest directives, examines current worldwide legislation and considers the opportunities and threats posed by this form of waste. While the emphasis is on European practice, comparisons with other countries such as the USA, Japan and China are made. The book deals with the full range of waste management issues, including recycling and recovery of materials, design considerations for waste minimisation, and contains a wide variety of illustrative case studies eg: LCD displays. With detailed and comprehensive coverage of the subject matter it also contains an extensive bibliography with each chapter. Key chapters cover areas such as: -electronic waste -materials -EU directives -landfill and incineration -recycling and recovery -'cradle to grave' design considerations -engineering thermoplastics It is essential reading for all involved with electrical and electronic waste management through its comprehensive review of recent EU legislation and the subsequent impact on manufacturers and users of electronic equipment.

Cooking and Dining in Medieval England

Cooking and Dining in Medieval England

The history of medieval food and cookery has received a fair amount of attention from the point of view of recipes (of which many survive) and of the general context of feasts and feasting. It has never, as yet, been studied with an eye to the real mechanics of food production and service: the equipment used, the household organisation, the architectural arrangements for kitchens, store-rooms, pantries, larders, cellars, and domestic administration. This new work by Peter Brears, perhaps Britain's foremost expert on the historical kitchen, looks at these important elements of cooking and dining. He also subjects the many surviving documents relating to food service - household ordinances, regulations and commentaries - to critical study in an attempt to reconstruct the precise rituals and customs of dinner. An underlying intention is to rehabilitate the medieval Englishman as someone with an appreciation of food and cookery, decent manners, and a delicate sense of propriety and seemliness. To dispel the myth, that is, of medieval feasting as an orgy of gluttony and bad manners, usually provided with meat that has gone slightly off, masked by liberal additions of heady spices. A series of chapters looks at the cooking departments in large households: the counting house, dairy, brewhouse, pastry, boiling house and kitchen. These are illustrated by architectural perspectives of surviving examples in castles and manor houses throughout the land. Then there are chapters dealing with the various sorts of kitchen equipment: fires, fuel, pots and pans. Sections are then devoted to recipes and types of food cooked. The recipes are those which have been used and tested by Brears in hundreds of demonstrations to the public and cooking for museum displays. Finally there are chapters on the service of dinner (the service departments including the buttery, pantry and ewery) and the rituals that grew up around these. Here, Brears has drawn a wonderful strip cartoon of the serving of a great feast (the washing of hands, the delivery of napery, the tasting for poison, etc.) which will be of permanent utility to historical re-enactors who wish to get their details right.
