Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Field-Manual for Railroad Engineers Chapter VI, on Construction, tells how to set slope-stakes, and gives simple methods for computing areas and volumes either directly or by the use of tables. A short table of prismoidal corrections is given for end sections level, and also a formula for three-level sections, by means of which a suitable table may be computed if desired. The tables at the end of this book have been arranged with a view to ease of reference, for, whatever the character of the text, the chief value of a field-book must depend upon the ease with which the tables may be consulted and upon their extent and accuracy. Table IX - Functions of a One-degree Curve - sepa rates the logarithmic functions on the one side from the natural functions on the other and will be of assistance in locating these tables. Table XVI - Transition-curve Table - reading lengthwise of the page, likewise serves to separate the trigonometric tables from the miscellaneous tables that follow.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Field-Manual for Railroad Engineers Chapter I gives briefly the general method of making Re-connoissance; Chapter II treats of Preliminary Surveys; while Chapter III relates to Location. Chapter IV, on Transition-curves, follows the method adopted by Professor Crandall, and enables one to locate the transition-curve with rigid accuracy where such is necessary. Approximate methods are also given by means of which the curve may be as easily located as any of the more limited easement curves ordinarily met with. Chapter V, on Frogs and Switches, contains all that is necessary for their location. The formulas have been arranged to give the desired quantities in terms of the frog number whenever the resulting equations would be easier of application than the trigonometric ones usually given. The turnout tables are unusually full and give not only the theoretical lead but the stub lead as well, from which the practical lead can be at once found when the length of switch-rail is known. Chapter VI, on Construction, tells how to set slope-stakes, and gives simple methods for computing areas and volumes either directly or by the use of tables. A short table of prismoidal corrections is given for end sections level, and also a formula for three-level sections, by means of which a suitable table may be computed if desired.

Table IX - Functions of a One-degree Curve - separates the logarithmic functions on the one side from the natural functions on the other and will be of assistance in locating these tables. Table XVI - Transition - curve Table-reading lengthwise of the page, likewise serves to separate the trigonometric tables from the miscellaneous tables that follow. Some engineers object to the use of logarithmic tables in the field, but for them the natural functions are at hand; while for those who prefer logarithms the five-place tables of logarithmic sines, cosines, etc., will be found easy to consult and interpolate between.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Engineer Field Manual: Parts I-Vi; I. Reconnaissance, II. Bridges, III. Roads, IV. Railroads, V. Field Fortification, Vi. Animal Transportation In April, 1899, the Chief of Engineers directed the Commandant of the Engineer School to enter upon the preparation of an Engineer Field Manual. At the same time all officers of the Engineer Corps who had been in the field during the Spanish war were invited to contribute data and suggestions, and many of them did so. At the Engineer School the work of compilation was committed to the instructor in civil engineering, then Capt. Henry Jervey, and under his control, and mostly by his own hand, a general plan of a manual was worked out, manuscript and plates prepared on the subjects of reconnaissance and bridges, and more or less complete notes on roads and railroads.

Resident Engineers in their dealings with the con tractors are expected to follow a courteous, business like and ethical course; to recollect that it is the con tractors' business to make all the money possible. Resident Engineers are not on the work to prevent this, but to see that the contractors perform their work in strict accordance with the specifications, plans and contract.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handbook of Railroad Construction; For the Use of American Engineers: Containing the Necessary Rules, Tables, and Formulae for the Location, Construction, Equipment, and Management of Railroads, as Built in the United States The object of this work is given in the plainest possible manner all instructions, rules, and tables necessary for the location, construction, equipment, and management of railroads. As a general thing, American engineers are not educated for their business; and when they do possess a knowledge of pure science, they are at a loss how to apply it. The reader is presumed acquainted with the elements of arithmetic, geometry, algebra, and mechanics; being thus provided, he will, by a perusal of what follows, be enabled to correctly proportion bridges, of wood, stone, and iron; abutments, piers, retaining walls, superstructure, and locomotive engines; and to plan and lay out, execute, and estimate any description of work occurring upon railroad.
