Print on Demand. This book delves into the practical applications of geometry for builders and architects. With a focus on real-world scenarios, it offers a bridge between theoretical concepts and practical execution. Rooted in the ancient science of geometry, the book traces its origins to land surveying in Egypt and the foundational principles established by mathematicians like Pythagoras and Euclid. Through clear explanations and detailed examples, the author explores key topics such as scales, angles, triangles, and various geometric figures. The book then progresses to more advanced concepts like solid geometry, developments, and interpenetrations of solids. By demonstrating the relevance of geometry in construction, ornamentation, and even surveying, this book equips readers with the knowledge to approach their work with both precision and creativity. Ultimately, it underscores the enduring power of geometric principles in shaping the built environment. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
