Présentation de l'éditeur
The object of this book is to present in a simple form the method to be employed in the designing of masonry arches according to the elastic theory. The entire subject of arches has been fully treated in the authors Treatise on A rches, in which formulas for special cases and conditions are given. Considering the fact that masonry arches are constructed of materials and imder conditions which are more or less tmcertain in character, the use of comprehensive or rigid formulas is not necessary or warranted. Consequently the formulas and methods here presented are somewhat approximate, but quite accurate enough for the purpose for which they are intended. The greater portion of the book is taken up with the solution of examples, giving each step in detail so as to be easily followed by the undergraduate or the engineer who has not the time to review the theory of arches in a comprehensive manner. The first and second examples have been solved by a somewhat longer method than necessary. This method was used in order to show clearly the several processes and checks.

Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricacies of masonry arch design using the elastic theory, offering a simplified approach for engineers and students alike. While acknowledging the inherent uncertainties in masonry construction, the author emphasizes the practicality of approximate formulas that provide sufficient accuracy for real-world applications. This comprehensive guide stands as a testament to the evolution of structural engineering, building upon the foundations laid by historical figures like Trautwine, Rankine, and Perronet. It delves into the fundamental principles of arch behavior, exploring topics such as angular distortion, coordinate changes due to bending and axial stress, and the impact of temperature fluctuations. With a focus on symmetrical arches fixed at the ends, the book meticulously examines the determination of horizontal thrust, bending moments, and fiber stresses under various loading conditions. Examples and graphical representations provide clear insights into the complexities of arch analysis. Discussions extend to the reliability of the elastic theory for different materials, including steel, natural stone, concrete, and reinforced concrete, considering their unique properties and limitations. Empirical formulas and practical considerations for determining arch rib depth, abutment thickness, and pier dimensions are also presented. Ultimately, this book equips readers with the knowledge and tools to confidently design and analyze masonry arches, bridging the gap between theoretical principles and their practical implementation in the realm of civil engineering.
