Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book takes a detailed look at the theory of bridge building, explaining how to determine the best proportions and dimensions for the construction of bridges that are strong, convenient, and beautiful. The author provides an in-depth examination of the forces at play in bridge bui…lding, including the force of water against the bridge's piers and how to calculate the thickness of the piers to withstand that force. Additionally, the author explores the relationship between the height and span of an arch and the thickness of the arch at its keystone, and provides detailed instructions for determining the proper thickness of the arch for any given height and span. The book also includes a discussion of the extrados of an arch, the curve formed by the top of the arch, and how to determine the proper extrados for a given intrados, the curve formed by the underside of the arch. The author concludes with a discussion of the importance of aesthetics in bridge building, arguing that bridges should be not only strong and convenient, but also beautiful.
