Structural Engineers' Handbook: Data for the Design and Construction of Steel Bridges and Buildings (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from Structural Engineers' Handbook: Data for the Design and Construction of Steel Bridges and Buildings
The size of the book and the size of the type page were selected for the reasons that they give a book of standard size with a type page large enough so that each table can come squarely on one page, and large enough so that complete plans of structures can be given. A large clear type was selected for both the text and for the tables. The paper has been selected with the idea of clear ness of the printed page.
This book is a result of many years' work, during which time the author has written four books on structural engineering. In writing this book the author has drawn on his other books, although much of the material given on steel mill buildings and highway bridges is new, and the Structural Engineers' Handbook supplements the author's other books.
Data and details have been obtained from many sources, to which credit has been given in the body of the book. The author is under special obligation to many engineers, to which special acknowledgment cannot be made on account of lack of space.
