Report On The Construction Of The Steel Arch Bridge: Replacing The Niagara Railway Suspension Bridge (1899) is a detailed account of the construction of the famous Niagara Falls bridge. The book is written by Leffert L. Buck, a prominent engineer of his time who was responsible for designing and building many important bridges across the United States. The book starts with an overview of the old Niagara Railway Suspension Bridge, which was built in 1855 and had become outdated and unsafe. Buck then describes the planning and construction of the new steel arch bridge, which was completed in 1897 and still stands today as a testament to the engineering marvels of the late 19th century.The book goes into great detail about the design and construction of the bridge, including the materials used, the engineering challenges faced, and the methods used to overcome them. Buck also discusses the various tests and inspections that were conducted to ensure the safety and stability of the bridge.Throughout the book, Buck provides numerous illustrations and photographs to help readers visualize the construction process and the finished bridge. He also includes technical drawings and calculations to demonstrate the engineering principles involved in the design and construction of the bridge.Overall, Report On The Construction Of The Steel Arch Bridge: Replacing The Niagara Railway Suspension Bridge (1899) is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history of engineering and bridge-building, as well as the history of Niagara Falls and its surrounding area.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
