Riassunto

Master the essential science of joining pieces in engineering practice.

This classic reference, by William Ledyard Cathcart, covers key methods for fastening and sheet-metal joints, with practical formulas and guidelines drawn from real‑world data. It focuses on pack, shrinkage and pressure joints, screw fastenings, and riveted joints used in ships, boilers, engines, and structural work.

The book guides you through the theory and application of joints, including how to choose fits, calculate stresses, and design for strength and leak resistance. It blends theory with practice, presenting proportions, materials, and methods of manufacture alongside tables and tests from practice.
What you’ll experience

• Clear, formula‑based treatment of screw and rivet joints, including stresses in rivets and the behavior of joints under load
• Steps to determine shell thickness, butt straps, and lap joints for boiler and hull work
• Practical discussions on riveting machines, hole sizing, and fatigue considerations
• Data‑driven guidance on joint design for vessels, stationary and locomotive boilers, and structural components

Ideal for engineers, machinists, shipbuilders, and students needing reliable, field‑tested guidance on fastenings and joint design. It’s a solid reference for anyone modeling or inspecting joints in metal structures and machinery.

Ideal for readers seeking a practical, mechanics‑based approach to machine design and the reliable, historical methods used in early 20th‑century engineering.
