Excerpt from Wrought Iron Bridges and Roofs: Lectures Delivered at the Royal Engineer Establishment, Chatham; With Examples of the Calculation of Stress in Girders and Roof Trusses by Graphic and Algebraic Methods

In the third and fourth Lectures the proportions and construction of plate web and braced girders are discussed, and in the latter the special methods of estimating the stresses applicable to braced girders. The author has always used Mr. Latham's method for parallel braced girders, the principle of which is here deduced from the simple con sideration of the shear and bending moment at a section. Mr. Latham was the first to abandon completely the formula for breaking weight and to proportion girders simply to the actual stresses due to the load, and his work is still probably the best treatise in our lan guage on wrought-iron bridges. Lastly, applications are given of graphic methods to parallel and bowstring girders.

Excerpt from Wrought Iron Bridges and Roofs: Lectures Delivered at the Royal Engineer Establishment, Chatham; With Examples of the Calculation of Stress in Girders and Roof Trusses by Graphic and Algebraic Methods

In no case, perhaps, has more useless ingenuity been expended than in the production of cumbrous trigonometrical formula for the stresses in roofs, - formula applicable only to a condition of uniform vertical loading, and useless when the actual nature of the forces to which a roof is subjected is taken into account. The author trusts that in the discussion of the effect of wind pressure some real advance has been made, and that the examples of the beautiful graphic method of Professor Clerk Maxwell may prove of essential service to the designer of roofs. Graphic methods have hardly yet received, at all events in this Country, the attention they deserve. In cases like those of roofs they are most powerful, and their principle once thoroughly mastered, they are most facile and accurate in application.
