Book Description
Excerpt from The Design and Construction of Metallic Bridges This book is based upon the ninth edition of The Stresses in Bridge and Roof Trusses, Arched Ribs, and Suspension Bridges, by one of the Authors of this volume. T hat work, however, has been so thoroughly rewritten and such a large amount of new matter has been introduced that a new title has been' adopted. It has been the intention of the Authors to prepare a comprehensive book covering all types of trusses used to a material extent in American bridge practice, or at least all trusses forming the basis of that practice. In con formity With this plan, the most advanced methods of stress computations, as well as those that are older, have been employed.
