Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - This two-volume work, first published in 1847, provides a comprehensive overview of the theory, practice, and architecture of bridge engineering. Written by a team of eminent experts in the field, it covers a wide range of topics, from the principles of bridge design to the construction of suspension bridges and the use of new materials such as iron and steel. Lavishly illustrated with engravings of the world's most impressive bridges, it is an essential reference for engineers and architects alike.
