Consists of two unpaginated parts bound in one cirlox-bound volume. Part 1 consists of 100 one-sided pages encompassing the textual component of the report, supplemented with occasional diagrams of roundhouse layouts and photocopies of photos. The report is divided into: Introduction; The Building, its Elements, Materials and Construction; Roundhouse Memorabilia; and Conclusions, plus a bibliography. The heart of the report lies in the Memorabilia section which provides historical and diagrammatic information about the roundhouses at North Bend, Revelstoke, Field, Cranbrook, Nelson, Trail, Penticton, Coquitlam, Vancouver, and Victoria. Part 2 consists of approximately 75 one-sided pages of black and white photocopied reproductions of photos of roundhouses from across British Columbia. Average wear. Unmarked. A sound copy. Presumably most, if not all, the roundhouses documented here have since been demolished, thus this report, prepared by students of the UBC School of Architecture, serves as an important historical and architectural record.
