Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Descriptive Geometry, Vol. 1 Descriptive geometry as taught in the Massachusetts In stitute of Technology is intended to lead to the solution of the graphical problems which ordinarily arise in engineering and architecture; to train the imagination as necessary in these professions; to cultivate the sense of accuracy; and to give facility in drafting and the ability to read working drawings with ease. Consequently this book, an outgrowth of printed notes, treats the subject from the standpoint of the drafts man rather than from that of the mathematician, placing reliance on graphical methods, and omitting analytical methods. Great importance is attached to the drafting exercises which supplement, at the Institute, the use of the book; in these the student works out a set of study plates which give printed data for a large number of original problems and applications. Considerable work in the projection of solids is given in Chapter VII., since the author believes better results will be obtained if, from time to time, some of this work be combined with the study of the problems on the line and plane. It has also been thought best to give problems in all four quadrants, but the book contains a much larger number of examples in the first and third for the benefit of students in architecture and engineering. The author desires to express his obligations for general sug gestions regarding method and scope to Professor Burton, head of the Department of Drawing in the Institute, who has recently studied abroad the methods of teaching descriptive geometry in the Ecole des Beaux - Arts and other French schools. Mr. Harry C. Bradley, of the Institute, has assisted in the many details of preparation; the selection of data for the examples and the making of the drawings are largely his work.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Descriptive Geometry Although the authors believe that an ele mentary course in the orthographic and iso metric projections of simple objects should precede the more analytical consideration of line and plane, as herein presented, yet this treatise has been proven adequate to meet the demand of those who have not received such preparation. By thus making it available for students of science and mathematics, as well as for engineers, it is hoped to promote a more general knowledge of the grammatical con struction of Graphic Language.

Download or read book Text Book on Solid Jr Or Descriptive Geometry Vol 1 of 2 Classic Reprint written by David Allan Low and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-09 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from d104-Book on Solid Jr. or Descriptive Geometry, Vol. 1 of 2 The Author, in writing this text-book, has endeavoured to meet the wants of both, elementary and advanced students, and he believes that it will be found to contain all the descriptive geometry which is usually required by engineering and architectural draughtsmen. But while making the book comprehensive, and illustrating it fully, it has not been made of an inconvenient size for use in large classes. The treatment of the subject in this work is slightly different from that in any existing books. The problems are stated in a more comprehensive way, and are made to include more cases than is usual with other writers. After the statement of the problem follows the general solution, which is usually given without reference to any particular example Next comes the application of the problem to one or more examples. In many cases the student may not fully understand the general solution of a problem until he has worked out the example which illustrates it. The advantage of this mode of treatment is, that it is more systematic, and enables the student to get a more intelligent and comprehensive grasp of the subject. After working the examples and mastering the general solution of a problem, the student is better able to cope with any fresh examples which may come before him, than if he had learned the subject from examples only.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Descriptive Geometry, Vol. 1: Orthographic Projections Professor Church succeeded so well in his efforts to produce a practical and well-adapted treatise that it has continued in use as a text-book for more than forty years in the United States Military Academy and in many other academies, tech nical schools, and colleges. This long-continued use of the book speaks well for its high intrinsic excellence. During the last few years, however, there have taken place many changes in the methods of teaching the subject: and in the problems required. To meet these new demands the present volume is issued. In its preparation much of Professor Church's text has been used, and his concise and lucid style has been preserved.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Essentials of Descriptive Geometry IT has been the endeavor Of the author in writing this text to include only those portions Of descriptive geometry which possess industrial utility and which develop the qualities Of mind so essential in a draftsman. First and foremost descriptive geometry should aim to teach projection. A draftsman must be able both to read and to write drawings with facility, and projection is the very grammar Of the language Of the designer. Secondly, descriptive geometry should aim to develop the ability to solve problems concerning the relations Of points, lines, and planes. These are, of course, but elementary parts Of all engineering structures as shown on drawings and it is important that a draftsman be prepared to solve problems relating to them directly on the drawing board. Thirdly, and perhaps most important Of all, descriptive geometry should aim to promote the ability to analyse a problem into its component parts, to reason from a given set Of conditions to a required set Of conclusions, and to build up from the drawing a mental picture of the Object which is there represented, for Without the ability to analyse, to reason, and to Visualize a draftsman is lacking in the essential qualifications of his calling.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Geometry, Vol. 1 The present volume consists of the first five books of the authors' Elements of Geometry, or that portion which relates to Plane Geometry. While the book speaks for itself, We would call attention to some of its most important features. The Introduction presents in the Shortest possible com pass the general outlines of the science to be studied, and leads at once to the actual study itself. The definitions are distributed through the book as they are needed, instead of being grouped in long lists many pages in advance of the propositions to which they apply. An alphabetical index is added for easy reference. The constructions are also distributed, so that the student is taught how to make a figure at the same time that he is required to use it in demonstration.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Descriptive Geometry The first edition of this book, published in 1912, represented the author's views on the presentation of Descriptive Geometry, so as to arouse the student's interest in the subject without sacrificing rigorous training in the principles. In three years the text has been used in many schools, and the present, second edition, aims to embody the suggestions of many leading teachers of the subject, who have, at the request of the author and publishers, expressed their views as to this development. The main idea of the first edition, that of "practicality," has been adhered to and amplified. The most important changes are: 1. The division into more chapters. 2. A more logical sequence for certain portions of the text. 3. The notation of points and planes. 4. Graphic layouts for exercises. 5. More exercises of a practical nature, embracing more lines of engineering endeavor. 6. A number of new solutions, utilizing auxiliary planes more frequently. 7. A better system of perspective drawing. 8. A chapter on the intersections of plane solids. Although yielding to the request of several teachers for the inclusion of graphic layouts of exercises, the author still believes that dimensioned layouts are of great value despite the amount of time expended on the layout itself. With both of these, however, in practically unlimited quantity, the instructor may decide the question for himself. The layouts of both kinds have been made so flexible by interchanging and substituting data, that the number of variations is almost incalculable. This removes the objection, expressed by some teachers, to a definite and limited number of exercises, the solutions of which are sometimes preserved by student organizations. No such collection of solutions will benefit future classes, as the exercises can be made entirely different each succeeding year.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Solid Geometry It is a great defect in most school courses of geometry that they are entirely confined to two dimensions. Even if solid geometry in the usual sense is not attempted, every occasion should be taken to liberate boys' minds from what becomes the tyranny of paper But beyond this it should be possible, if the earlier stages of the plane geometry work are rapidly and effectively dealt with as he1e suggested, to find time for a short course of solid geometry. Euclid's eleventh book is generally found dull and difficult, but all that is of real value in it can be dealt with much more rapidly, especially if full use is made of the idea of the motion of a line or of a plane. Similarly it should be found possible to include a study of the solid figures; this will be much facilitated if their general outlines have been made familiar at the very commence ment as is usually the case.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Plane Geometry, Vol. 1 In, teaching Geometry, it appeared, at first, singular that students could master, the difficulties of Arithmetic and Algebra, and yet fail to comprehendthe relations Of, magnitudes which appealed to the sense of sight. A little closer Observation, however, revealed the fact that many. Students accomplished little more than the committing to memory variations of A, B, C, and Of correct geometrical reasoning they had hardly a conception. Even the intelligent pupils were found unable to apply the principles to new matter; and the solution of, problems not in the book was almosten impossibility. Geometry, if prop erly taught and' thoroughly understood, is just as flex; ible as Arithmetic or Algebra.
