Excerpt from The Strains on Structures of Ironwork: With Practical Remarks on Iron Construction
From a varied experience in the practice of Civil Engineering, the subject of the present treatise appears to me one of the most difficult branches of the profession. My engagements of late years have induced me to study it with peculiar attention, as I was appointed in 1852 to assist the principal officers of the Crystal Palace Company at Sydenham, in calculating the strength and designing the details of the Company's works; and my subsequent practice, arising in a great degree from this connection, has partaken much of a similar character. I found great difficulty, however, in acquiring a complete knowledge of the strains on the several parts of iron framings, as the works of previous authors, though displaying great talent and research, have left much undetermined or obscure which is necessary to the designer of such structures. I have laboured to supply, in some measure, these deficiencies, as I found them recurring in my practice; and now venture to lay before my professional brethren these results of my study and experience, in the hope that their embodiment in a simple and practical form may facilitate their labours in design, and promote the comprehension of a branch, which the growing preference for ironwork in engineering structures invests with well-acknowledged importance.
In preparing a second edition of this work, the author expresses deep gratification at the many assurances received by him of its practical utility.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book provides critical insights into the complex strains affecting iron structures and bridges, using a variety of diagrams, formulae, and illustrative figures to make these complex concepts easy to understand. The author's exploration of the scientific principles behind the behaviour of iron under stress, and their practical application in engineering, places this book within the broader context of civil engineering and architectural history. By using these scientific principles to analyze the strains on individual components of iron structures and bridges, the author offers valuable information on how to design and assess these structures, which are essential to the development of large-scale infrastructure projects. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781331979760_0
