Description

Originally published in 1934, this book by the renowned British civil engineer Sir Charles Inglis (1875-1952) presents a study of 'the dynamic effects in railway bridges, produced by the action of locomotives and other moving loads, and the determination of simple, yet scientific formulae, whereby these effects can be predicted with a reasonable degree of accuracy'.
