Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on Building Construction The art of building has never been fully discussed from the engineer's standpoint, and it is not proposed herein to attempt such discussion, but there are a number of points resulting from practical experience which will be touched upon with a view to supplementing the course in Building Construction at the Engineer School. Every military engineer should be master of construction in all its forms. Probably the first really difficult structures erected by man had their origin in military requirements; so, military engineering may fairly claim to be the father of all construction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mechanics of Building Construction During the summer of 1906 the author was requested by the Board of Education to give a course of lectures at South Kensington upon "The Mechanics of Building Construction" to a number of Science teachers selected by the Department from all parts of the Kingdom, with the object of perfecting their knowledge of the subject and at the same time illustrating the manner in which it should be taught. The course was so well appreciated by the teachers that a repetition was asked for in 1907, and was duly given to another selected group. Those lectures form the basis of the present work; but in preparing his notes for the press the author has made some alteration in the division of the sections and many additions to the text and drawings, and has revised the remainder where expedient. The details have been expanded, and explained more fully than they were in the first instance, so that what was originally prepared for teachers only is now available also for students, and forms a complete text-book of all the more important branches of the subject. The matter is divided up into thirty chapters so that, if used as lectures, each would occupy not more than one and a half hours in delivery, including the time taken up in sketching the diagrams on the blackboard. The want of a good general work upon the principles of Structural Engineering, which covers the whole ground that a student needs to traverse before he begins to specialise, has often been felt by young architects and engineers, although there are many books dealing with some of the elementary branches which leave little to be desired. This work is intended to supply the deficiency. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

He has aimed also at giving such a description of the nature and characteristics of the various Building Materials in general use, as should be sufficient (with other subjects dealt with in the volume) for the purposes of the examinations in Building Construction prescribed by the Science and Art Department, the Royal Institute of British Architects, and the Surveyors' Institution, respectively.

After the lapse of a further period of nearly ten years it became evident that something more than a mere revision would be necessary to bring the work thoroughly into line with modern practice. Consequently, on the recommendation of the present Editor, Parts I and II have been entirely rewritten by well-known architects and others having Special knowledge on certain subjects. Most of the illustrations are entirely new, the remainder having been selected from those which appeared in previous editions.

An explana tion of the natural peculiarities, and a description of the industrial characteristics and values of the materials, and of the principles upon which the structures in which they are used are based, forms no part of the scheme of the work.
