The range of further reading is already vast, and grows swiftly. Those wishing guidance will, like us, find Brunskill (1985), Harris (1978), and Mercer (1975) useful. Each has a bibliography and its own glossary. Hewett (1980) provides by far the most extensive corpus of joint forms, but the nomenclature used for them is inconsistent, and we have felt unable to follow him completely. For mouldings, we have found Morris (1992) particularly useful.
