An Introduction to the History of Structural Mechanics: Part II: Vaulted Structures and Elastic Systems: 002 Book

This book deals with the historical development of the scientific theories that, in the 18th century, gave engineers and architects the means of calculating masonry vaulted structures, and in the 19th century provided exact mathematical methods for dimensioning the new complex structural systems which drew their origin from the Industrial Revolution. This book is written for students of strength of materials, structural mechanics (or engineering), rational mechanics, etc., who are interested in the origins of what they learn. It would be very useful, as a complementary reading, to the students of the history of architecture, history of construction and architectural restoration.Read More
