Excerpt from The Elastic Arch: With Special Reference to the Re-Enforced Arch The writer was direly in need of a method, for in his hands has been placed the designing of many arches during the past few years. To Prof. H. T. Eddy and Prof. Wm. Cain, I am indebted for the application of the equilibrium poly gon to arches; to Prof. Irving P. Church for his clear exposition of Eddy's method and to Prof. M. A. Howe for the effect of axial thrust. I lay claim to several new features. I have shown how the subject can be deduced from one simple equation. The easy method of drawing the closing line of the equilibrium polygon was given by me in the Transactions, Am. Soc. C. E., vol. Lv. Prof. Howe's results of axial thrust, I have applied graphically.
