Smoley's Tables: Parallel Tables of Logarithms and Squares, Angles and Logarithmic Functions, Corresponding to Given Bevels and Other Tables, for Engineers, Architects, Etc (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book addresses the challenges encountered in structural calculations by providing logarithmic and squared values of measurements from zero to 100 feet presented in feet, inches, and decimals of an inch. The innovative dual-table format allows for the simultaneous use of logarithms and squares, which are commonly used for constructing right-angle triangles in architecture. The author's detailed approach and comprehensive computations enable users to derive essential data such as length, angle, and trigonometric functions, eliminating the need for trigonometrical tables. This book offers an innovative and precise method for structural calculations, targeting structural drafters and engineers seeking a simplified and efficient approach.

Smoley's Tables (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a valuable resource for anyone working with measurements and calculations, particularly those involved in structural drafting. The author, recognizing the frequent need to determine both squares and logarithms of numbers in these fields, presents a unique parallel tabulation system. This system allows users to easily find both the square and logarithm of a number simultaneously, saving time and minimizing the potential for errors. The book's primary focus is on simplifying and streamlining calculations for right-angle triangles. The author demonstrates how this parallel arrangement is particularly effective in solving problems related to structural details, such as roof trusses. By combining these tables, the book effectively replaces the need for trigonometric tables in most common scenarios, making calculations more accessible and efficient. The author further enhances the book's utility by including a table of angles and log functions, which serves as a valuable tool for solving right-angle triangles using bevels and sides. This table offers a direct and rapid solution for these calculations, making it useful for a wide range of applications. This book, a pioneer in its approach, offers a practical and innovative solution to common computational challenges faced by professionals in the fields of engineering and architecture. 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. Seller Inventory # 9781332968107_0
