Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a comprehensive collection of arguments made in favor of concrete and Portland cement by the various organizations with a vested interest in those materials. It captures the spirit of a pivotal moment in architectural and engineering history as construction moved into the 20th century and skyscrapers began to dot the urban landscape. While most of the arguments presented are rooted in a practical concern with the material properties of concrete and its suitability for use in buildings, the broader themes of the book extend to encompass questions of technological progress, economics, fire safety, and public welfare. The author suggests that concrete was not universally accepted or understood and presents a collection of arguments made in its favor to demonstrate its utility and safety. The arguments in this book are a fascinating historical document that offers insights into the development of modern construction techniques and the ways in which modern cities were shaped. 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.
