Opis: Note-Book on Plane - Robert Harris

Excerpt from Note-Book on Plane: Geometrical Drawing; With a Chapter on Scales, and an Introduction to Graphic Statics

This note-book on Practical Geometry has been written primarily to meet the requirements of students preparing for the Entrance Examinations of the Royal Military Academy at Woolwich, and the Royal Military College at Sandhurst.

It is hoped that the book may also be of use to Candidates for the Engineering College, Cooper's Hill; the Indian Public Works and Telegraph Department, the Royal Marine Light Infantry, the Art Master's Certificates of the Third Grade, Science Subject I. of the Science and Art Department, the Oxford and Cambridge Local Examinations, &c.

Solutions of problems set at Woolwich and Sandhurst are given, together with a chapter on Scales, and an introduction to Graphic Statics; with methods of applying instruments used in Military Surveying and Engineering.

It has been my object to give as much practical information on the subject of Plane Geometrical Drawing as the limits of one volume would allow.

Acknowledge of Practical Geometry is the basis of all the mechanical and decorative arts; and many of the problems given will themselves suggest the application for practical purposes.

Acknowledgment must be made of the valuable assistance received from Bradley's Elements of Geometry, Lacroix' Elements de Geometrie, Sonnet's Geometrie Theorique et Pratique, and other authorities, which have been consulted in the progress of the work.
