Abstract

"Owing to the cheapness and durability of reinforced concrete, the tendency of the present time in Engineering practice is to build new and replace old structures with reinforced concrete. Therefore, in taking up a subject for a thesis, I have selected, The Investigation of the Design of a Reinforced concrete Arch," or, as I named it, "Main Street Reinforced concrete Arch over Frisco Railroad" – Introduction, p. [1].
