The Theory Of The Continuous Girder Its Application To Girders With And Without Variable Cross-Sections (1889)

The Theory Of The Continuous Girder: Its Application To Girders With And Without Variable Cross-Sections is a book written by Malverd A. Howe in 1889. The book focuses on the theory of continuous girders and their application to girders with and without variable cross-sections. The author provides a detailed analysis of the behavior of continuous girders under different loading conditions and explains the principles of their design. The book covers topics such as the bending moment and shear force diagrams, the deflection of girders, the calculation of stresses and strains, and the use of moment distribution method in the analysis of continuous girders. The author also discusses the application of the theory to girders with variable cross-sections, such as tapered girders and trapezoidal girders. The book is a valuable resource for engineers, architects, and students interested in the design and analysis of continuous girders.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
