Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book by a Canadian bridge designer presents the fundamentals of bridge and structural design for students, draughtsmen, and practicing bridge designers. It explains the composition and resolution of forces, the lever and moments, shearing and bending stresses in beams, moment of resistance, and moment of inertia. The author provides general methods for determining the moments of resistance and inertia of a beam of any section and includes formulas relating to beams. The book then presents examples in the computation of properties of simple and compound sections and examples illustrating the method of determining the sizes of beams required for various cases. The author presents examples that illustrate the method of designing columns and struts, with a particular focus on permissible compression per square inch for columns. The book concludes with the complete design of a steel roof truss for a building with masonry or brick walls capable of withstanding wind pressure, including details, and the design of a knee-braced mill building, including an analysis of wind stresses and reactions. By studying the examples included in this book, the reader can learn bridge and structural design in a simple and practical manner.
