A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

A rchitects, Architectural Students and Builders. The Author has been induced to prepare it because of his inability to find, among the many excellent works on the Mathematics of Construction, one that could be readily adapted as a reference book, treating of the various details of I ron and Steel as applied in the construction and finishing of buildings. It was considered advisable to give but general information on the manufacture of I ron in the first chapter, to serve as an introduction to the chapters on Construction which immediately follow, and to give in these chapters such simple formulas and complete tables as would readily enable one to calculate the strength of beams, girders, etc., subject to a transverse strain, and of vertical supports subject to compression. Desiring to give as much information as possible in relation to the construction and practical description of the miscellaneous details, especial attention has been given to their illustration. WM. H. BIRKMIRE. MEW YORK, March,

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.
