The nerv booklet "Churches" presents elorlttent testimony' in a series of it4 illustrations, to the efficiency, economy, and graceful beauty which may be attained by the use of three llractical and proved methods of wood construction'

Foremost among these is glued laminated wood construction. I')xposed glued laminated wood arches afford the desired architectural lleauty and stttrdy strnctural perfort'nancc that is ideal for today's churches'

The I-antella system is another type of lvrlod construction that requires no ceiling coverage cluc to thc decorative elTect of the Lamellas themselves' This is more widely tused for recreational buildings and other church assembly places than'for the sanctuary proper.

The Teco connector system is a third construction method that is popular with architects for smaller churches. Both exposed and concealed roof construction is possible with trussed rafters, triangttlar, scissors, and cambered Fink trusses.

The booklet also contains specifications for roof construction using Teco engineering methods, and a list of Timber Roof Truss Fabricators in the United States'
