Masonry Structures (Classic Reprint) by Frederick Putman Spalding Pdf

Excerpt from Masonry Structures The term Masonry has been construed to include concrete, and the field covered by the title is a very wide one. It has therefore been necessary to select for discussion those types which seem most adequately to illustrate the principles, and no attempt has been made to cover fully the details of all classes of masonry structures. The purpose has been to provide an introduction to the subject, which may later be followed by intensive study in more detailed works upon the various branches. This gives a general view of the subject as a whole, and is the natural method of approach. The Author has derived much assistance from a number of books which deal more fully with various portions of the subject. These are mentioned at the ends of articles or chapters to which they specially relate. They should be studied by students desiring a more complete presentation of the subject. Special acknowledgment is also due to Professors A. Lincoln Hyde and Guy D. Newton of the University of Missouri for reading and criticising portions of the manuscript and for assistance in pre paring the illustrations.

The Design of Masonry Structures and Foundations (Classic Reprint) by Clement C. Williams Pdf

Excerpt from The Design of Masonry Structures and Foundations Due to investigations, both analytical and experimental, that have been made in recent years of the properties of masonry materials, the forces to which masonry structures are subjected, and the behavior of such structures, masonry design and construction have largely passed from the status of an art to that of a science, much as did bridge design after the invention of methods for calculating stresses in truss members. The extensive use of concrete with the studies that have been made to improve its quality and to secure economy in its use, and the development of reinforced concrete, a masonry material capable of sustaining tensile strains and requiring a stress analysis in order to proportion the steel, have contributed largely to this changed status in the design of masonry structures. This scientific understanding of masonry design has widened the use of masonry to include many structures for which other materials formerly were used exclusively, although for the most part, notwithstanding their diversity, these structures can be grouped about a comparatively few representative types. The soft and pleasing hues and outlines of masonry structures as well as their durability have appealed to builders from time immemorial, and masonry still offers the best means of building artistically and strongly with the economy that results from permanence. Moreover, there is an increasing demand in the design of engineering structures to secure not only stability and economy but something of elegance, grace and beauty in addition. Since good architectural treatment can be secured with but slight if any increase in the cost, it is appropriate that this phase of design should be given special attention in planning masonry structures. The present volume was prepared with a view to furnishing a textbook embodying these ideas. An attempt has been made to offer a mode of analyzing forces and calculating resulting stresses and to indicate an acceptable method of design.

Indian Masonry (Classic Reprint) by Robert C. Wright Pdf

Excerpt from Indian Masonry This work is fraternally dedicated to you. In your kindly charge it is placed, hoping that when it has been measured by the plumb, square and level, it will be found good work, true work, square work, and just such work as you need and may pass to be used in the building up of the real Masonic structure. The field of study among the aboriginal races of the new world is intensely interesting, and so much so that the author would fain do more and more in that field, could he have the time at his disposal, for he firmly believes that the Craft of this country owes it to itself to have this work done. He also believes that facts may yet be found out there, which will make our Masonry look like a Broadway store building beside an old Egyptian temple. Astonishing and curious things of the past not only fascinate and inter est, but lure one on to seek to dispel the shadows cast about them and to view them in the light by which those people worked.

Stresses in Masonry (Classic Reprint) by Herbert Chatley Pdf

Excerpt from Stresses in Masonry This little work supplies, I believe, a felt want. Elementary treatises on steel-work are numerous, but a brief yet comprehensive account of the stresses in masonry has not yet, to my knowledge, been produced. I have assumed that the reader is familiar with mathematics only up to quadratics, all more advanced matter being relegated to foot-notes. Also I have assumed that a knowledge of stresses in steel, such as is possessed by the majority of young engineers and architects in practice, is at the reader's disposal. Beyond this, I have endeavoured to make the matter as simple as possible, eliminating complex theory which may be a little more accurate, but does not adapt itself to design.

Engineering for Masonry Dams (Classic Reprint) by William Pitcher Creager Pdf

Excerpt from Engineering for Masonry Dams IN reviewing this book the reader will probably be impressed with the fact that many of the fundamental assumptions of design are based on very obscure data. This is particularly true regard ing uplift pressure, ice pressure, and the distribution of stresses in high dams. It is believed, however, that such assumptions are all on the side of safety; for each of the recorded failures of masonry dams may be attributed to a violation of one or more of the standard rules on which the theory is based.
