Book Synopsis Masonry Bridges, Viaducts and Aqueducts by : Ted Ruddock
Download or read book Masonry Bridges, Viaducts and Aqueducts written by Ted Ruddock and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For 2,000 years the most durable spanning structures have been built of masonry, and the surviving bridges of the Roman Empire have challenged master masons, architects and engineers to emulate and surpass them. Down the centuries, bridge-builders have been commissioned by monarchs, bishops, councils of state, cities, private individuals and, more recently, waterway and railway companies. The studies collected in this volume focus chiefly on the bridges, viaducts and aqueducts themselves and the actions of the designers and builders, but also encompass the political, economic and social contexts and outcomes of their creation. Famous bridges in Britain, Italy, France, Iran and the USA are all featured. Narratives of conception, design and construction predominate, but there are also papers on construction techniques, on the analysis of documentary sources, and on the continuing search by modern engineers for satisfactory scientific description of the strength and stability of arch bridges.

Book Synopsis Coulomb's Memoir On Statics: An Essay In The History Of Civil Engineering by : Jacques Heyman
Download or read book Coulomb's Memoir On Statics: An Essay In The History Of Civil Engineering written by Jacques Heyman and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1997-12-18 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coulomb read his Essai on ‘some statical problems’ to the French Academy in 1773. It is a document of great importance in the history of engineering since it laid the foundations of the modern science of soil mechanics and also discussed three other major problems of eighteenth-century civil engineering: the bending of beams, the fracture of columns and the calculation of abutment thrusts developed by masonry arches.Professor Heyman's book makes the Essai accessible to a wide range of engineers and historians of technology. It is here reproduced in full with an annotated English translation, a chapter elucidating Coulomb's references and with full discussion of the technical problems it treats. It concludes with some brief historical notes on Coulomb's life and technical education in eighteenth-century France.

Book Synopsis Studies in the History of Civil Engineering by : Joyce Brown
Download or read book Studies in the History of Civil Engineering written by Joyce Brown and published by Ashgate Pub Limited. This book was released on 2001-05-28 with total page 4982 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From dams to cathedrals, from water supply to transport systems, and from land drainage to the design and construction of ever larger and more monumental buildings, the impact of civil engineering on human history has been immense. This series sets out to examine key aspects of its history, from antiquity to the early 20th century. Each volume focuses on a particular topic, edited by an expert in that field, and opens with a substantial new introduction. They reprint a selection of papers which have proved of particular importance, and which exemplify the current state of knowledge and the historiography. The series constitutes an authoritative reference library, not just for those interested in the history of civil engineering, but also those studying economic history and the history of science and, above all, of architecture.

Book Synopsis Structural and Civil Engineering Design by : William Addis
Download or read book Structural and Civil Engineering Design written by William Addis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of design has often been neglected in studies considering the history of structural and civil engineering. Yet design is a key aspect of all building and engineering work. This volume brings together a range of articles which focus on the role of design in engineering. It opens by considering the principles of design, then deals with the application of these to particular subjects including bridges, canals, dams and buildings (from Gothic cathedrals to Victorian mills) constructed using masonry, timber, cast and wrought iron.
