Excerpt from Graphic Statics: A Graduated Series of Problems and Practical Examples, With Numerous Diagrams All Drawn to ScaleN our. Elementary Applied Mechanics much of the work is done by Graphic Methods, but for want of space, the subject Graphic Statics is not treated systematically. The following problems and applications are intended to form an introduction to our larger work, but as they are complete in themselves, they may be studied as a separate subject.For many years Graphic Statics has formed an important part of the regular work done by the students who have attended our classes, we find the subject exceedingly useful, readily followed, and easily understood by all.Many problems, for the solution of which the analytical methods are laborious and difficult to follow, are easily solved by drawing, and students have a better appreciation of many of these problems after they have solved them by graphic methods. The best results are often obtained by using analytical and graphic methods on the same problem part of the work being done by one method, part by the other. Frequently a large number of results are obtained by drawing and the accuracy of the whole drawing may sometimes be tested by checking one of these results by calculation.The authors have prepared a more advanced set of Graphical Exercises, drawn on a large. Scale, on sheets of quarter double elephant size: many of them in two colours. These exercises are nearly ready for publication.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
