Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of voussoir arches, structures that have fascinated architects and engineers for centuries. The author builds upon the foundational work of Dr. Hermann Schefer, and presents a comprehensive theory of arch design and stability. Through meticulous analysis and practical experiments, the book illuminates the forces at play within an arch, exploring the influence of factors such as the compressibility of materials, the weight distribution, and the impact of piers. This work challenges conventional assumptions about arch design, highlighting the importance of understanding the principle of least resistance in determining the true line of pressures within the arch. The book features a series of engaging experiments conducted by the author using wooden arches, providing compelling visual evidence that supports the theoretical principles outlined. This book offers readers a unique glimpse into the intricate mechanics of voussoir arches, providing practical insights that can be applied to both historical and contemporary construction projects. The author's careful examination of the principles governing arch stability, coupled with the engaging experimental demonstrations, makes this book a valuable resource for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of these iconic 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.

Hardcover. Pale green paper boards with black lettering and design, 118 pp plus 15 pp, bw charts and graphs. "The following little treatise first appeared in Van Nostrand's Engineering Magazing, for which is twas written. The author hopes that he may be doing a service to American readers in introducing to them Dr. Scheffler's Theory of Arches, the fundamental principles of which are contained in the following pages, Vertical forces alone are considered. Numerous experiments are given in illustration of the theory of advanced, both for symmetrical arches as well as for unsymmetrical arches, or arches unsymmetrically loaded. It is believed that the following theory is easily acquired, is rapid in working and agrees with experiment, and therefore can properly be called "A Practical Theory of Voussoir Arches."- Preface. Good (ex-library copy with labels on front cover, end pages, and library stamps, covers are loose, overall shelf wear but interior pages are clean and VG for age).
