Brannigan never ceases to amaze me. The guy was so far ahead of his time. RIP

Try the local library, they should have books on general building construction.

Branigans book (Buiilding Construction and the Fire Service) is available from Amazon. It is the Firefighters bible on building construction. It is written by an engeneer but made to be read by a Firefighter. I highly recommend it to all.

Amazon.com: Building Construction for the Fire Service: Francis L. Brannigan: Books
