Synopsis

Excerpt from Graphical Analysis of Roof Trusses: For the Use of Engineers, Architects and Builders

The use of Graphical Analysis for the solution of problems in construction has become of late years very wide-spread, and recent discoveries in this line have extended its application in many new directions. The representation to the eye, in one diagram, of the forces which exist in the several parts of a frame, possesses many advantages over their determination by calcula tion. The accuracy of the figure is readily tested by numerous Checks. Any designer who fairly tries the method will be pleased with the simplicity and directness of the analysis, even for frames of apparently complex forms. Those persons who prefer arithmetical computation will find a diagram a useful test of the accuracy of their results. Being founded on principles absolutely correct, these diagrams give results depending for their accuracy on the exactness with which the lines have been drawn, and on the scale by which they are to be measured. With ordinary care the different forces may be obtained much more accurately than the several parts of the frame can be pro portioned.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
