Excerpt from Proportions of Pins Used in Bridges
It is not the least of the merits of skele ton structures, such as are built by the best American constructors, that any of the parts can be exactly calculated. The determina tion of strains acting in pins is not excepted from this statement, though it is connected With the application of some of the finer laws of the theory of elasticity.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an in-depth examination of the theory of elasticity and its application to the design of bridges and other structures. The author delves into the physics of structural mechanics and explains the interrelationship of the various forces and strains that occur in structural elements. The book's early chapters establish the fundamental principles of elasticity and extend into more advanced topics such as the distribution of pressure and shearing strain in pins and the calculation of maximum strains in structural members. The author's approach is both theoretical and practical, combining mathematical equations with real-world examples and illustrations. They draw upon their own extensive experience in bridge design to provide practical insights and rules of thumb for engineers and designers. Throughout the book, the author emphasizes the importance of understanding the fundamental principles of elasticity and using them to design structures that are both safe and efficient. By providing a comprehensive understanding of the theory of elasticity and its application to bridge design, this book serves as a valuable resource for engineers, architects, and other professionals involved in the design and construction of structures. The insights and knowledge gained from this book are essential for ensuring the safety and integrity of structures, making it an indispensable guide for anyone working in the field of structural engineering.
