[2], 31, [1 blank] pp. Original plain blue wrappers, stitched, untrimmed. Very Good. Dates and publishing information appear at the end of the introduction. The Resolutions applied to all lots on the Duke of Bedford's estates. They were designed to enhance fire safety, primarily by construction of better party walls between adjoining houses. The Associated Architects was founded in 1791, the first organization of British architects. This is evidently its only publication. OCLC 12355842 [7], 57270180 [1]. Seller Inventory # 21554

8vo, pp. (iv), iii, (4)?31. Original wrappers (spine torn and worn), uncut and largely unopened. FIRST EDITION. The Association of Architects in London was formed in 1792 for the purpose of examining the cause of the frequent house fires, which spread rapidly as the floors were wooden and party walls were usually made of lath and plaster. The Association?s recommendation was the extensive use of plaster as a bedding for the floors in upper storeys, which would be an efficient retardant. This method was adopted in the repairs carried out to the numerous properties owned by the Duke of Bedford. Seller Inventory # 3194
