Excerpt from The Practical Designing of Structural Ironwork
Many of the subjects dealt with in the following chapters will be recognised as having been issued in pamphlet form at intervals during the last ten years for the use of the students in the Engineering Department of the City of London College. Their extended circulation has, however, proved them to be of utility to engineers and architects who are no longer in their pupilage, and they arc now rearranged, with several additional notes, in such form as to be handy for reference while designing, so that the volume may with propriety find a place upon every drawing-office table.
The descriptions accompanying the calculations are brief, but will be found ample enough to render the whole of the working clear and definite to any one who has had the ordinary preliminary training in the principles of mechanics and theory of stresses. The opening chapters are expressly made very simple, to remove any possible difficulty that might otherwise be experienced by a beginner in designing, and many subsidiary matters are touched upon throughout the book as indicative of the intimate knowledge of detail which should be shown by a competent draughtsman.
