Excerpt from Atlas of the Engravings to Illustrate and Practically Explain: The Construction of Roofs of Iron, Intended to Further Elucidate This Particular Mode of Building With Iron for Public Edifices
The weight of the Western Railway roof, including the boarding, frames, corrugated iron covering, gutters, ventilating irons, but without including the columns, was about 125} lb. Per yard superficial. The strain supposed to be brought upon the trusses was estimated at the rate of about 91; lb. Per yard superficial, in addition to the weight of the roof itself. As the Western Railway had been opened for traffic some time previously to the execution of this roof, some ingenuity was required in its erection whilst the ordinary movement of passenger traffic was being carried on this object was effected by raising the entire principals from a staging which covered the respective lines of rails.

The author provides detailed descriptions and illustrations of notable iron roofs, showcasing the innovative designs and engineering feats that characterized this period of architectural history. Iron roofs emerged as a response to the growing need for large-span structures, particularly in railway stations, warehouses, and industrial buildings. The author highlights the pioneering work of engineers such as M. Flachat and Mr. Turner, who developed groundbreaking techniques for constructing iron roofs with exceptional strength and durability. The book explores the various types of iron roofs, including arched, semi-elliptical, and lattice structures. It delves into the technical aspects of their design, discussing load distribution, truss systems, and the use of wrought and cast iron components.
