Excerpt from Lectures on Building ConstructionThe art of building has never been fully discussed from the engineer's standpoint, and it is not proposed herein to attempt such discussion, but there are a number of points resulting from practical experience which will be touched upon with a view to supplementing the course in Building Construction at the Engineer School.Every military engineer should be master of construction in all its forms. Probably the first really difficult structures erected by man had their origin in military requirements, so, military engineering may fairly claim to be the father of all construction.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
