What reading level is Tiled Roofs the Kind of Buildings to Which They Are Suited And a Method of Cons book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Wood Shingles, the ordinary machine-made, excellent in their place on houses of which the construction is such as to permit of nothing heavier. As dwellings of this class are in the great majority, shingles are in common use. "Shakes, " the long, split, red-wood "shakes" which warp and curl more or less to the weather are ex ceedingly effective; incomparably more effective than shingles where- ever the balance of the construction is in keeping. They are thirty- six inches long by six inches wid...e, about a quarter of an inch thick, and are commonly laid sixteen inches to the weather. "Shakes" may even be used in place of tiles where shingles would look too light and cheap. The great length of the "shake" together with its warp and curl to the weather, produce delightful lines and shadows. The sawed "shake" is inferior in every way.
Mineral Slates are used, but not to any great extent on dwellings. A gray-blue slate is not cheerful, but in a gray northern climate it goes well with the common red brick; it has no place on the adobe or plaster walls of California buildings which demand color.
