This book was released on 2018-03-09 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Papers on Subjects Connected With the Duties of the Corps of Royal Engineers, Vol. 2 It is not a sufficient reason, that the principles of defensive fortification should remain unstudied in England, because we have no great internal fortresses, and because we rely on our maritime superiority. We have colonies to defend; we have our naval arsenals to protect; which, while an object of great importance, is rendered more difficult than ever from the extended application of steam power to shipping generally. As our fortifications are limited, and we have not, as other nations, specimens of the defensive art constantly before us, it is more especially necessary that the principles upon which they are constructed should be perfectly under stood. We are too apt to follow servilely the rules dogmatically laid down in the published works on the art of fortification, while our business should be, to apply the general principles of the art to a species of fortification suited to the circum stances of our country. In the smaller description of forts required for the defence of harbours and colonies, all the true principles of defence must be kept in view; whilst at the same time it is necessary to adapt their size to small garrisons at all times, whether of peace or war, so that they may not be found cumbrous to the country.

This book was released on 2016-11-07 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Papers on Subjects Connected With the Duties of the Corps of Royal Engineers, Vol. 19: Contributed by Officers of the Royal Engineers The total height from the beach to the level of the platforms in the case mates is about 48 ft., and the rise of the tide is 18 ft. At high-water spring tides. The beach is very rocky, and, consequently, a passage had to be made by blasting, so that the lighter in which the guns were conveyed from the gun Wharf might ground in the sand at the end of the pier. The stage is made entirely of red pine, and consists of two ways, 6ft. Apart, supported on trestles and struts, which again are guarded from side strains by additional struts. At the end of the stage is a small sort of mole, upon which is constructed a level platform capable of receiving four or five 12-ton guns at a time. The height of this platform is exactly the same height as the baulks fixed on the deck of the lighter when grounded at the end of the pier. There were originally two footways between the ways, but one was removed in order to allow room for the revolution of the trunnions of the gun when parbuckled up the incline. The outside of the mole is made of rough rubble masonry laid in Roman cement, half sand; and the interior consists of a sort of coarse concrete made out of the dunstone gathered from the beach. The time taken in erecting the stage was three weeks; and the entire cost was 167. The diagrams explain for themselves the method of construction. Mooring chains were afterwards added to guard against the force of the sea during the equinoctial gales, but their services have never been required.
