Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book outlines the use of engineering and contracting methods in the building of the Panama Canal. The author provides a historical background of the construction of the canal from the French attempt in the late 19th century to its eventual completion by the United States, describing the engineering challenges, labor issues and political difficulties encountered during construction. The book also examines the advanced engineering and contracting methods used, such as steam shovels, concrete construction and railroad transportation, which were developed specifically for the project. The author argues that the successful completion of the Panama Canal was not only a major engineering achievement but also a testament to the power of human ingenuity, organization and determination.
