Book Description
Excerpt from The Theory of the Flexure and Strength of Rectangular Flat Plates Applied to Reinforced Concrete Floor Slabs In reviewing the history of every type of structural work, we find the designing engineer influenced in his first attempts at any new type of structure by his knowledge of the practical forms of construction with which he is already familiar. In fact until very recent times precedent was the engineers sole guide. It was to be expected therefore that the pioneers in concrete-steel construction should follow and closely imitate timber and structural steel construction. In following this type, the idea has been to build up the structure as a whole by assembling and joining together a number of independent elements or units: whereas concrete, with or without reinforcement, is a kind of material that is best suited by its nature to construction in monolithic form. But when the attempt has been made to treat such structures theoretically, preconceived ideas have led to the effort to treat them by analysing them into separate members and computing the strength of these arbitrarily selected units, assumed to act independently as they do in steel structures. Such treatment has led to errors of as much as two or three hundred percent in the computation of slabs with two way reinforcement supported on four sides, and to errors of four hundred percent in case of continuous flat slab construction such as occurs in the mushroom system. When we consider the fact that fire losses in Canada and the United States amount each year to half a billion dollars, and that the question of commercial economy determines whether buildings shall be built of fireproof and incombustible materials such as reinforced concrete, or of inflammable materials such as are used in timber construction, it is at once evident how important it is to the general public to be able to determine on theoretically correct principles whether safe fireproof buildings can be built at approximately the same or less cost than combustible ones. In case of any uncertainty on this question, the designer is compelled for safety to employ materials in such lavish amounts as to render cost prohibitive. The failure of engineers and mathematicians generally to apply the mathematical theory of elasticity to the new material concrete-steel, has led to considerable controversy between practical constructors of experience, and theoretical engineers without such experience.

The History of the Theory of Structures
Author: Karl-Eugen Kurrer
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 3433601348
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 864
Book Description
This book traces the evolution of theory of structures and strength of materials - the development of the geometrical thinking of the Renaissance to become the fundamental engineering science discipline rooted in classical mechanics. Starting with the strength experiments of Leonardo da Vinci and Galileo, the author examines the emergence of individual structural analysis methods and their formation into theory of structures in the 19th century. For the first time, a book of this kind outlines the development from classical theory of structures to the structural mechanics and computational mechanics of the 20th century. In doing so, the author has managed to bring alive the differences between the players with respect to their engineering and scientific profiles and personalities, and to create an understanding for the social context. Brief insights into common methods of analysis, backed up by historical details, help the reader gain an understanding of the history of structural mechanics from the standpoint of modern engineering practice. A total of 175 brief biographies of important personalities in civil and structural engineering as well as structural mechanics plus an extensive bibliography round off this work.
