The Structural Engineer, Volume 15, Issue 12, 1937
The elastic equations of the hingeless arch are usually solved approximately by dividing the arch rib into a number of sections. In the case of the arch whose axis is a parabola and in which the depth varies parabolically from crown to springing, an exact solution is possible, even if ribshortening is taken into account. R.J. Cornish
IT is necessary to appreciate that there is no Law dealing exclusively with Building Contracts and reference to the Law of Contracts covers everyday transactions of every description, the buying and selling of goods and other dealings of that kind. If it is suggested in the following remarks that, an Engineer should follow certain procedure or take a certain course of action in dealing with various matters, let it be perfectly understood that the advice is given subject to the particular contract conditions containing nothing to the contrary. B.C.P. Kehoe
