hausdok Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 Lstiburek & Carmody's classic, the Moisture Control Handbook is now available free online as a downloadable pdf document at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory site at: http://www.ornl.gov/sci/roofs+walls/fac ... ndbook.pdf This is a 273 page document (22 MB download) so make sure that you've got a fast computer, fast connection and plenty of spare space on your hard drive, or lots of paper, a fast printer and 20 minutes to kill.

Phillip Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 Well that leaves me out. I am on dial up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hausdok Posted August 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2006 Hi, Not really, I've got a lot of stuff that I downloaded while I was on dialup years ago. It used to take me 4, 5 sometimes 6 reconnects to get something printed because it would time out. Then I increased the ram in that old computer and bought a printer that did 17ppm in black and white and had a big buffer and life got easier. I was on dialup for a couple more years after that, then I went to DSL and a couple years after that to cable. It was a pain in the keester, but it can still be done with dialup if you've got enough ram and your printer buffer can hold enough of the document. Or, here's a thought, I can email it to you as an attachment. Can your email program handle that? ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!! Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phillip Posted August 21, 2006 Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 I think so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phillip Posted August 21, 2006 Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 Well I got it to down load. It took about 4 hours to do it. Good Info is worth the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hausdok Posted August 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 Glad you got it. I tried to email it to you but it timed out while attaching and I've got broadband. OT - OF!!! M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swolsen Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Not sure why you would want to print it out when you can just read it from your computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Bernhardt Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Interesting comment. But for some reason my brain seems to work in two different modes, one for the screen and one for the print. I prefer print for some reason as it seems to trigger deeper thought with out all of the distractions of the screen. Chris, Oregon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hausdok Posted January 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 That's easy, I seem to do a great deal of my reading in the throne room while I'm doing my.......... It's the one place where I don't get interrupted. Don't think I want to install a computer in there. OT - OF!!! M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swolsen Posted January 8, 2007 Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 Hi Chris, Yeah I guess I can remember when it was harder to read from the screen. I guess I got use to it after many years. I can definitely understand Mikes dilemma. Hey Phillip, Is there any particular reason you are still on dialup? I was wondering since, it took me all of 8 seconds to download the 273 page Moisture Handbook and 4 hours on a 22MB file no longer sits with me very well. I remember those days. Arrrgh!

Phillip Posted January 8, 2007 Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 Scott, The reason is no cable here. The phone lines are the wrong type and I'm not going to pay what that what to bring it in on the air waves. I live in the woods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
