Synopsis A Manual of Civil Engineering (Classic Reprint) by : William John Macquorn Rankine

Excerpt from A Manual of Civil Engineering The tables of the strength of materials at the end of the volume give, as regards iron and stone, average and extreme results only. Detailed information as to the strength of different kinds of stone and iron is given in the course of the text, under the proper headings. I have, throughout the book, adhered to a systematic arrange ment as far as was practicable, and have only departed from it in a few instances, when it became necessary to introduce questions that had arisen, or facts that had been ascertained, after the completion of the part of the work to which they properly belonged. In drawing up the table of contents and the alphabetical index care has been taken to show where such detached pieces of information are to be found.

Synopsis Empirical Design in Structural Engineering by : Thomas Boothby

Through case studies from North America, Europe and Asia, Empirical Design in Structural Engineering shows that empirical design is practised much more widely than is generally understood,that it can make a valuable contribution to structural engineering design, and can be found embedded within the procedures of rational engineering design.

Synopsis Pushing the Limits by : Henry Petroski

Here are two dozen tales in the grand adventure of engineering from the Henry Petroski, who has been called America’s poet laureate of technology. Pushing the Limits celebrates some of the largest things we have created–bridges, dams, buildings--and provides a startling new vision of engineering’s past, its present, and its future. Along the way it highlights our greatest successes, like London’s Tower Bridge; our most ambitious projects, like China’s Three Gorges Dam; our most embarrassing moments, like the wobbly Millennium Bridge in London; and our greatest failures, like the collapse of the twin towers on September 11. Throughout, Petroski provides fascinating and provocative insights into the world of technology with his trademark erudition and enthusiasm for the subject.
