In this book, author Thomas E. Boothby presents readers with a comprehensive examination of the analytical, graphical, and empirical design techniques that ruled the design and construction of 19th century buildings, bridges, piers, and many other types of small and large structures utilizing wood, brick, iron, and stone. The author has organized the sixteen chapters that make up the bulk of his text in three parts devoted to empirical methods of design and construction, analytical methods used to evaluate the design and construction of structures, and empirical methods used in the graphical analysis of structures. Boothby is a faculty member of the Pennsylvania State University. Annotation ©2016 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)

Paperback. Zustand: New. Presents a comprehensive explanation of the empirical, graphical, and analytical design techniques used during this period in the construction of both large and small buildings and bridges in wood, stone, brick, and iron. Drawing on a career-long fascination with how structural engineers do their work. Thomas Boothby provides specific examples of these analyses and design methods applied to arches, girders, trusses, beams, and columns. The numerous calculations, drawings, and photographs, both historic and contemporary, illustrate the application of these techniques to a wide range of structures.While major civil engineering works of the Gilded Age are acknowledged, Boothby focuses on the smaller, more ordinary local projects that today's engineers might encounter and analyses the significant body of engineering design that went into their construction. Boothby also points out the historic value in preserving the engineering techniques and ideas of that era. The rapidity of computation and the intimate relationship between the structure and its analysis have been lost in the numerically intensive analytical methods currently employed. Undertaking the historic preservation or rehabilitation of structures from the late 19th century can be challenging. Understanding the original design intent, however, can aid in a successful outcome. The quick and computationally efficient methods described in this book can assist present day engineers in understanding the behaviour of these structures and give insight into their actual performance.
