Simplified Formulas and Tables for Floors, Joists and Beams; Roofs, Rafters and Purlins (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from Simplified Formulas and Tables for Floors, Joists and Beams; Roofs, Rafters and Purlins
The formulas for rupture and deflection usually given are quite inconvenient in form, because large numbers must be used in computations, requiring the use of seven place logarithms or tedious arithmetical computations.
By transforming these formulas, changing lengths from inches to feet, loads from pounds to tons, constants for the material from pounds to tons, and bending moments from inch-pounds to foot-tons, simplifying the resulting formulas as much as possible, they may be put into forms far more convenient for practical use, and *may then be grouped on a single page for each mode of support arid arrangement of the loading. These simplified formulas can be applied With sufficient accuracy by using a good slide rule or a four-place table of logarithms.

Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a practical guide to understanding and applying the mechanics of engineering materials, particularly for architects and engineers working with structures that support transverse loads. The author recognizes that traditional formulas for beam calculations can be cumbersome, requiring extensive computations with large numbers. To address this issue, the book introduces a system of simplified formulas that streamline calculations and make them more accessible for practical use. The author's approach emphasizes efficiency, allowing engineers to calculate safe load limits and deflections with greater ease, employing four-place logarithms or a good slide rule. To further enhance the usefulness of these formulas, the book includes tables for determining the properties of rectangular cross-sections of timbers and standard cast-iron lintels, making the process of determining proper sectional dimensions simpler and faster. Ultimately, this book provides a powerful tool for engineers, allowing them to design structures with greater accuracy and efficiency, ensuring both structural integrity and aesthetic appeal. 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 # 9781333033514_0
