Bibliography
BibliographyLiterature on many aspects of timber framing can be found in
the MOT library. Separate publications can be found on specific techniques
such as squaring beams or splitting shingles. Much has been written about
the work of the carpenter, both in recent and less recent times. It is
difficult to give a quick overview of this. We therefore limit ourselves
below to works that specifically deal with timber framing in Flanders. The
literature on craftsmanship in our surrounding countries and elsewhere is
too extensive to discuss here. This list serves as an introduction to the
literature on Flemish half-timbered construction. For more specific
questions you can always contact the MOT. (Tel.: +32 2 270 81 11 -
