Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a groundbreaking investigation of the strength and reliability of wrought-iron beams, columns, semi-columns, and other bridge components, addressing the limitations of existing formulas used in their design. Through the author's extensive research, this book presents comprehensive formulas that account for both longitudinal and transverse loads, as well as various end conditions, such as fixed ends, free ends, and combinations thereof. These formulas not only align with well-known empirical formulas but also reveal the composition of constants, providing a true key to the law of safe loads. The book delves into the effects of pin friction in pin bearings and examines the limited lengths between failure by crushing and by simple flexure. By incorporating these factors, the formulas enhance the accuracy of strain calculations in structural members, leading to more reliable and efficient bridge designs. This book is an invaluable resource for engineers, architects, and students seeking to advance their knowledge of bridge design and ensure the safety and integrity of these vital structures. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781334178696_0
