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.

Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an in-depth guide to the analysis of stresses in trusses using a graphical method. The graphical analysis of forces, developed in the 1800s, finds the stresses in a structure using polygons of force. Understanding this method gives the designer a powerful tool that can be applied to all types of trusses. This book explains the first principles and reciprocal nature of graphical analysis and demonstrates its application to a wide range of truss configurations. Covering both vertical and horizontal forces, parallel and flat chord trusses, and loads not applied at joints, this book will be an indispensable resource for students and practicing engineers alike. The author, an experienced engineer and educator, provides clear explanations, numerous examples, and illustrations to make the concepts easily understandable. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
