Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Graphics and Structural Design Although the book is called Graphics and Structural Design the determination of the stresses has not been confined to graphi cal means; the 'other usual methods have been included. The design of a plate girder may seem out of keeping with the purpose of the book. The author formerly used a crane runway girder instead of the railway bridge, but decided that the railway girders made the more comprehensive and better problem. The design of the latter permitted the use of the moment table and acquainted the student with the usual method of treating locomotive and train loads. Incidentally, one who could design a railway plate girder was well prepared to design a runway girder, although the reverse was not so generally true.

This book was released on 2018-03-19 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Application of Graphic and Other Methods to the Design of Structures: Specially Prepared for the Use of Engineers IN compiling this work, the Author has tried to make prominent the fact that Graphic Methods are only the instruments by which particular numerical results are often easily obtained, and it considered apart from physical conditions and quantities, they, are simply mathematical exercises, and of little real use to the engineer or the engineering student. For this reason some of the designs b'atre been worked out in detail, and the chapter on working stress has been written. The sequence of chapters might have been altered perhaps with advantage; but as many of them are comparatively complete in themselves, this is not a matter of great importance. The reason for introducing the theory of bending so early was, that in the Author's opinion it is preferable to show the application to concrete structures of the various graphic methods given in the text; and as that involved the design of a strut, and that again involved the theory of bending, the Author did not hesitate to introduce it where he did. Should any reader not be familiar with the different methods of deducing results there shown, he may pass them over and use the results in the design he has in hand. Much has been introduced into this work which is not to be found in many books on Graphic Statics, such as the theory of counterbracing, maximum bending moment with moving loads, design of a plate girder, stability of masonry structures, masonry and metal arches, and the theory of structures con taining redundant members but the Author has not attempted to treat these sections exhaustively from every point of view, but rather to introduce them in their general aspect, and thus pave the way for a further study of works much larger than this. At the same time it is hoped that the reader may be able to find in these pages much that will be useful to him in his ordinary work.

Download or read book Structural Design Elements of Structural Design Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by Horace R. Thayer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-10 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Structural Design Elements of Structural Design, Vol. 1 IT might be well to say here what is repeated in the text that this work presupposes a knowledge of mechanics, stresses, and the mathematics on which they depend. The experience of the author in teaching and in practice has led him to believe that no available book presents all structural subjects so concisely that they can be covered in the time usually allotted by technical schools. Moreover, the fundamental principles of shop practice and erection, which govern the designer at every step, are not clearly developed. These faults the author has attempted to correct, using only orthodox methods of presentation. This volume considers wooden structures and the fundamental principles of design in steel. Should this work receive recognition, it is intended to follow it by a second volume on the Design of Simple Structures, plate girders, viaducts, truss bridges, mill buildings, high office buildings, and standpipes, and a third on the Design of Advanced Structures, cantilever, movable, and suspension bridges and arches. It has been thought best for the present to omit the data usually found in handbooks. As a considerable portion of this treatise is original data, corrections and suggestions will be especially welcome. How ever, a great deal of pains has been taken to eliminate errors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For designers, writing and research skills are more necessary than ever before, from the basic business compositions to critical writing. In this competitive climate, designers are routinely called upon to make words about the images and designs they create for clients. Writing about design is not just "trade" writing, but should be accessible to everyone with an interest in design. This book is a complete, introductory guide to various forms of research and writing in design—and how they explain visuals and can be visualized. These pages address communication on various levels and to all audiences: - Designers to Designers - Designers to Clients - Designers to the Design-literate - Designers to the Design-agnostic Being able to express the issues and concerns of the design practice demands facts, data, and research. With Writing and Research for Graphic Designers, you’ll learn how to turn information into a valuable asset— one of the key talents of the design researcher.
