Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a compilation of tests conducted on building materials by the United States Ordnance Department in 1882. The tests were conducted at the request of the commissioners for the erection of the Philadelphia City Hall, and the results provide valuable insights into the strength and durability of various construction materials used at the time. The book presents a detailed overview of the methods and results of the tests, including data on the compressive strength of different types of marble, sandstone, limestone, brick, cast iron, and wrought iron. The author provides a historical context for the tests, discussing the importance of understanding the properties of building materials for ensuring the safety and longevity of structures. The book's thematic depth lies in its exploration of the relationship between the physical properties of building materials and their suitability for use in construction. The author highlights the importance of factors such as strength, durability, and fire resistance, and discusses how these factors can influence the design and construction of buildings. The insights presented in this book remain significant as they provide a foundation for understanding the behavior of building materials under load and contribute to the development of safe and durable construction practices.
