Synopsis

Master the fundamentals of machine construction and drawing with a proven, practice‑based approach.

This enduring text teaches the principles engineers rely on, from gearing and propellers to valve motions and governors. It emphasizes real‑world practice, illustrated by standard and novel examples drawn from present American engineering.

The book is designed for schools of civil and mechanical engineering, for artisans and inventors, and for institutions preparing students for professional study. It presents the core concepts, methods, and problems you need to understand how machines are built and how their drawings communicate every detail of form and function.

  • Learn the principles of gearing, screw propulsion, valve motion, and governors.
  • Explore a wide range of standard and novel examples from current practice, supported by notes and illustrations.
  • Study the structure of the material through clearly organized parts, sections, and practical problems.
  • Gain a solid foundation for both studying theory and applying it in design and manufacturing settings.

Ideal for students, instructors, and practicing engineers seeking a clear, applicable guide to machine construction and drawing.
