(1) Theory of Elasticity (2) Department of Scientific and Industrial Research Second Report of the Steel Structures Research Committee

Abstract

FOUR of the leading engineering institutions of America have engaged in a fresh enterprise in technical literature. Selected manuscripts of value to engineers and industry, but of probably limited appeal because of their special nature or treatment, are to be produced in a series entitled “Engineering Societies Monographs”. Prof. Timoshenko's volume is the first to be issued and gives a fine impression of the high standard intended.
