The Structural Engineer, Volume 2, Issue 3, 1924
IN calculating the bending moments in a beam freely supported at the ends it is usual, when the loading is not symmetrical, first to calculate an end reaction. Many people do not realise that the calculations can be put in such a form that the complete bending moment and shear diagrams can be drawn without further calculation. W.A. Green
II. Materials, Methods of Testing and Tests PORTLAND cement was used which passed the standard tests for specific gravity, fineness, soundness and time of setting. The specific gravity was 3.10. J. Singleton-Green
HOUSING is not a subject with which the Structural Engineer is generally concerned, but it is one which would benefit greatly by his attention. The principal object of this article is to present the case, from an engineering point of view, for the use of concrete for the present day building requirements, particularly in so far as the housing problem is concerned, and having regard to the shortage of bricks and skilled labour. Major W.H. Smith
