Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of early 20th century engineering, focusing on the intricate design and construction of a 150-ton floating crane. The author, a leading engineer of his time, meticulously documents the strain-gage testing conducted on the crane, rev…ealing the complex interplay of forces and stresses within the structure. The book delves deep into the technical details of the crane's design, highlighting the unique challenges posed by its large scale and its intended use in a demanding maritime environment. Through detailed analysis of the data collected during the testing process, the author illuminates the intricacies of stress distribution within the crane's various components, providing valuable insights into the structural behavior of such massive engineering feats. The book offers a rare window into the scientific and practical approaches used to design and analyze large-scale structures in a period marked by significant advancements in engineering and construction. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Cloth, dj. Minor edge wear to jacket. Top corner of rear board beginning to fray. Else fine. A very nice copy; internals are bright and clean. American architect Louis I. Kahn left behind a legacy of great buildings: the Salk Institute in La Jolla, California; th…e Kimbell Art Museum in Fort Worth, Texas; and the Indian Institute for Management in Ahmedabad. Yet he also left behind an equally important legacy of designs that were never realized. This exceptional volume unites those unbuilt projects with the most advanced computer-graphics technology--the first fundamentally new tool for studying space since the development of perspective in the Renaissance--to create a beautiful and poignant vision of what might have been. Author Kent Larson has delved deep into Kahn's extensive archives to construct faithful computer models of a series of proposals the architect was not able to build: the U.S. Consulate in Luanda, Angola; the Meeting House of the Salk Institute in La Jolla; the Mikveh Israel Synagogue in Philadelphia; the Memorial to Six Million Jewish Martyrs in New York City; three proposals for the Hurva Synagogue in Jerusalem; and the Palazzo dei Congressi in Venice. The resulting computer-generated images present striking views of real buildings in real sites. Each detail is exquisitely rendered, from complex concrete textures to subtle interreflections and patterns of sunlight and shadow. Kahn's famous statement--I thought of wrapping ruins around buildings--is borne out by the views of his unbuilt works; his rigorous exploration of tactility and sensation, light and form, is equally evident. Complementing the new computer images is extensive archival material--rough preliminary drawings, finely delineated plans, and beautiful travel sketches. Larson also presents fascinating documentation of each project, often including correspondence with the clients that shows not only the deep respect accorded the architect but the complicated circumstances that sometimes made it impossible to bring a design to fruition. Not only a historical study of Kahn's unbuilt works, this volume is in itself an intriguing alternative history of architecture.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a detailed examination of the effects of varying the angle of bend and spacing of inclined steel reinforcement used to mitigate shear forces in concrete beams. The author presents experimental data on the relationship between these variables and the resulting shear str…esses. These findings are pivotal within the history of reinforced concrete construction. The book provides insights into the behavior of reinforced concrete beams under load, including the initiation and propagation of diagonal cracks. Its findings have contributed significantly to the understanding of how to prevent shear failure, ensuring the safety and longevity of reinforced concrete 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.
