Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents an in-depth analysis of the physical properties of wire rope, a fundamental component in engineering and construction. The author delves into various types of wire rope, including tiller, guy, hoisting, and flexible constructions, exploring their tensile strengths, elongations, and reductions in diameter. The book also examines the laws of construction and formulas for estimating purposes, providing valuable insights into the mechanics of wire rope. The author draws upon a vast dataset of tensile tests conducted on over 300 wire rope specimens, analyzing the observed data to uncover the fundamental relationships between the rope's construction, material properties, and performance. These findings shed light on the behavior of wire rope under various loading conditions, contributing to a deeper understanding of its structural integrity. Overall, this book is a comprehensive resource for engineers, researchers, and practitioners seeking to enhance their knowledge of wire rope properties and applications. It offers practical formulas and empirical equations that can be applied in the design and analysis of wire rope systems, ensuring optimal performance and safety in critical engineering applications.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents the results of an experimental investigation into the behavior of 18 large bridge columns conducted by the Bureau of Standards at Pittsburgh in the early 20th century. Prior to this study, most bridge column data was primarily based on preliminary calculations, but the author sought to supplement this information with mechanical determinations of maximum stresses in the columns and their details. The book is divided into five parts: description of apparatus, purpose and scope of the investigation, discussion of results, conclusions, and original data of the investigation. The large number of tests included in this book provides data and insights valuable to engineers and designers alike, offering a more comprehensive understanding of the behavior of bridge columns under axial loads.
