The Stone Skeleton: Structural Engineering of Masonry Architecture Paperback - 1997
by Jacques Heyman
Cambridge's Jacques Heyman provides a thorough and intuitive understanding of masonry structures, such as arch bridges, Greek temples, and Gothic cathedrals. Although his approach is firmly scientific, Heyman does not use complex mathematics. Instead, he introduces the basis of masonry analysis, then considers individual structures, through lucid and informative text. 5 photos. 100 line diagrams. 3 tables.
First line
Masonry is an assemblage of stones - or bricks, or indeed sun-dried mud (adobe) - classified for convenience with certain distinct labels, as Byzantine, Romanesque, Gothic, but recognized by engineers as having a common structural action.
