The Elements of Graphical Statics and Their Application to Framed Structures, by Augustus Jay Du Bois, presents a comprehensive exploration of graphical statics and its practical application to engineering structures. Originally published in 1883, this book offers insights into the methods of calculation and provides new formulas for complex structural elements such as pivot or draw spans, braced arches, and continuous girders.
This volume is an invaluable resource for engineers, architects, and students seeking a detailed understanding of graphical statics as it applies to structural design and analysis. Du Bois's clear explanations and practical formulas make this book a timeless reference for those involved in the design and construction of framed structures.
