Comme le fait observer Barlow dans sa préface, ses deux Mémoires ont été publiés à la suite du concours ouvert par la compagnie du chemin de fer de Birmin gham, qui avait offert un prix de 100 guinées ir.) à l'auteur du meilleur travail sur la construction des rails chairs et supports et sur le moyen de fixer ces diverses parties entre elles.
MM. Rastrick, N. Wood et Barlow furent chargés d'examiner les nombreux projets envoyés à ce concours, et M. Barlow, en qualité de rapporteur de cette com mission, rédigea successivement ses deux Mémoires, dans lesquels se trouvent les résultats de recherches théoriques et pratiques du plus grand intérêt.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book approaches the engineering of railroads scientifically through the empirical data the author himself collected through innovative, pioneering experiments. The author conducted tensile, impact, and bending tests on wrought iron to establish its behaviors and characteristics when subjected to various forces. In the absence of standards or existing research in these parameters, this book provided detailed calculations, charts, and equations for determining the dimensions and strength of rails and their supports, and established essential principles guiding the design of railroads, many of which still inform engineering practices today.
