working with bits

I am working on creating a DNS resolver. According to RPC 1035 a
number of fields a certain number of bits long need to be sent with
certain information in it. For example: a 1-bit field followed by a 4-
bit field followed by 3 1-bit fields, followed by a 16-bit field. How
do I create these fields and combine them to send to a dns server?
