Publisher's Synopsis
"Design and General Details for a Single Track, Single Leaf, Trunnion Bascule Bridge" presents a detailed exploration of the design and construction principles involved in creating this type of movable bridge. Authored by H. C. Anderson, H. W. Schlinz, and T. E. Richards, Jr., and dating back to 1912, this work offers invaluable insights into early 20th-century engineering practices.
The book likely covers essential aspects such as structural calculations, material specifications, and mechanical systems necessary for the bridge's operation. It would serve as a resource for understanding the intricacies of trunnion bascule bridge design, appealing to historians, engineers, and anyone interested in the evolution of civil and mechanical engineering. Its detailed focus provides a comprehensive view of the engineering challenges and solutions of its time.
