Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers an extensive examination of the many surprising uses of compressed air during the industrial boom of the late 19th century. The author, an expert in the field, traces how compressed air transformed engineering, mining, transportation, and manufacturing. Prior to its widespread adoption, compressed air was primarily used for drilling into rock and mining operations, but with the development of improved compressors, it began to revolutionize numerous industries. The book includes many detailed descriptions and technical illustrations of compressed air applications such as the excavation of the Niagara Tunnel, the construction of the Chicago Drainage Canal, and the implementation of air brakes on trains and streetcars. The author highlights how compressed air advanced the construction of bridges, buildings, and tunnels, and its use in powering machinery and tools in factories and workshops. The book provides a comprehensive history of this transformative technology, showcasing its profound impact on engineering and industrial development during this period.
