Engineering Iron and Stone
Boothby presents a comprehensive explanation of the empirical, graphical, and analytical design techniques used during the late nineteenth century in the construction of both buildings and bridges in wood, stone, brick, and iron.
Manual for the Assessment of Load-Bearing Unreinforced Masonry Structures
The assessment of unreinforced masonry structures is difficult to undertake in practice.A structural engineer is usually confronted with a standing, apparently competent, structure thatseems to defy most of the rules of structural behavior, as incorporated in modern building codes. The engineer must then choose between reinforcing the structure according to a modernunderstanding of material strength and structural behavior or trying to make sense of the behavior and anticipated strength of the structure on a more fundamental level. A fundamental structural assessment, although it involves a considerable amount of effort in analysis and in furthering the understanding of masonry behavior, is ...

Load Rating of Masonry Arch Bridges and Culverts
The State of Ohio has 139 inventoried masonry arch bridges and many more culverts, in road and highway service. Many of these structures have been identified as historically significant, making their replacement difficult, and their load-rating and rehabilitation imperative. In this study a procedure for load rating masonry arch bridges is developed. The procedure follows the practice of the AASHTO Manual for the Maintenance Inspection of Bridges, Load Factor Method. The geometry of the structure is determined by field measurement, and appropriate material properties are determined by inspection or testing. A unit width of the structure is analyzed using commercially available place frame analysis software. The moments and axial forces in the arch ring under combinations of load and rating factors are compared to estimates of the capacity of the masonry to determine inventory and operating ratings. Field tests of seven structures under various configurations of truck loading have been used to validate the analytical model. The proposed analysis and rating procedure is applied to the structures in this study.

Empirical Structural Design for Architects, Engineers and Builders
'Empirical Structural Design for Architects, Engineers and Builders' provides an explanation of empirical design as a practical means of making preliminary structural design decisions. The descriptive text, tables and figures assist the reader in completing a building design on the basis of proven ratios, simple rules of thumb, standard practices and acceptable minimum sizes.
