Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Graphical Method for Swing-Bridges, Vol. 1: A Rational and Easy Graphical Analysis of the Stresses in Ordinary Swing Bridges, With an Introduction on the General Theory of Graphical Statics
The article on the analysis of the stresses in Swing-bridges, of which the greater portion of these pages consists, was originally intended for publication in some engineering journal, and for such purpose to be complete in itself; which fact explains why it contains matter which otherwise might have been more consistently embodied in the Intre duction, which was not thought of until later.
