Reference excerpt

The R.T. Frazier House is a historic Craftsman-style bungalow house built in 1915 in Pueblo, Colorado. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985. It was deemed significant for its association with R.T. Frazier and as an architectural work.

History It was built in 1915 for local saddle and harness manufacturer Robert T. Frazier, of R.T. Frazier Saddlery. Frazier was wealthy and spared no expense. The construction budget was US $15,000; however they spent more than double at US $35,000 (without furnishings). Frazier's saddles won many awards, including first place at the 1893 Columbia Exposition, and was considered the finest saddle in the world at the 1915 Panama-Pacific Exposition. Two of Frazier's famous saddlery customers were Buffalo Bill Cody and Pancho Villa (José Doroteo Arango Arámbula). Its construction of the R.T. Frazier House was announced and reviewed favorably by the Pueblo Star Journal, the local newspaper, in 1916, which called it "utter perfection". It has been speculated that the house may have been designed from the popular style of books of the time period. It is a front-gabled house with tapestry brick and rhyolite stone; the foundation appears to be made of ryolite stone with the four large pillars. The porch and the railing made of sandstone.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with R.T. Frazier House

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what R.T. Frazier House claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In engineering, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to R.T. Frazier House before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about R.T. Frazier House ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of R.T. Frazier House

In research: R.T. Frazier House appears in engineering research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses R.T. Frazier House in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: R.T. Frazier House is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics American Craftsman architecture in Colorado, Buildings and structures completed in 1915, Bungalows in Colorado, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for R.T. Frazier House outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
