On The Strengths Of Beams, Columns, And Arches is a book written by Benjamin Baker and first published in 1870. The book is a comprehensive study of the strength and stability of various structural elements, including beams, columns, and arches. Baker was a renowned civil engineer who played a significant role in the construction of the Forth Bridge in Scotland, and his expertise is evident in the detailed analysis and practical advice presented in this book.The book begins with an introduction to the fundamental principles of mechanics and materials science, including stress, strain, and elasticity. From there, Baker delves into the various types of structural elements and their properties, including the different types of beams and columns and their load-bearing capacities.The book also covers the design and construction of arches, including the use of masonry and ironwork, and the various factors that can affect their stability, such as temperature changes and vibrations. Throughout the book, Baker provides numerous examples and case studies from his own experience, demonstrating the practical application of the principles he presents.Overall, On The Strengths Of Beams, Columns, And Arches is a valuable resource for engineers, architects, and anyone interested in the design and construction of structures. It provides a thorough understanding of the principles of structural engineering and offers practical guidance for designing and building safe and stable structures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
