Ewart S. Andrews Theory and Design of Structures

Annotation

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The size of this book makes many of the figures of little or no use for scaling from in the graphical construction. The author wishes to impress on students the absolute necessity of drawing the various figures to a good scale; to read the book without going through the construction is practically useless except for revision purposes. The author also wishes to recommend his readers to read through the worked examples, which are rather a feature of the book. Many points are explained in such examples which are not dealt with elsewhere.
