Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces a simplified method of applying descriptive geometry to practical questions in military fortification drawing, making the subject more accessible to military engineers and students. The method uses horizontal projection and references to express the distances of lines and points from a plane of comparison, allowing for the depiction of three-dimensional objects and surfaces on a two-dimensional plane. The book covers topics such as determining the intersection of lines and planes, constructing elements of geometric and irregular surfaces, and solving problems related to tangent planes and secant lines. By providing a systematic approach to fortification drawing, the book helps engineers accurately and efficiently represent complex structures and terrain, enabling better planning and execution of fortification projects. 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. print-on-demand item.
