The Principles of Graphic Statics

While in many of the great engineering schools of the Continent the subject is deemed worthy of a professional chair....... The contents are extensively illustrated with text drawings and photos. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
