Présentation de l'éditeur

Engineering Library TA PEEFACE. THE numerous works that have been written upon the subject of Applied Mechanics seem to be generally intended more for the use of theE ngineer than the A rchitect. The training of theE ngineer being essentially a scientific one, he is compelled to devote much time to the study of mechanics ;while the A rchitect, whose chief aim is to become an A rtist, has to give most of his hours of study to the arts of drawing and designing ;so that he has but little time, and often less inclination, to make acquaintance with the science of his profession, being generally contented to take his formulae from some pocket-book, without caring to enquire into the principles upon which those formulas are based. In the following pages the Author has endeavoured to supply a want which is felt by many A rchitects, by bringing together, in a small compass, all that it is essential for the A rchitect to know upon this subject, and to give in as simple a form as possible an outline of the principles upon which all good construction should be based.
