The Design of Mine Structures, written by Milo Smith Ketchum in 1912, is a comprehensive guide to the design and construction of structures for mines. The book covers a wide range of topics related to mine structures, including the design of tunnels, shafts, hoists, and ventilation systems. The author begins by providing an overview of the geology and mining methods used in the early 20th century, before delving into the specifics of mine structure design. The book includes detailed instructions on how to calculate the loads that structures will need to bear, as well as how to design the structural elements themselves. The Design of Mine Structures also covers the materials used in construction, including timber, steel, and concrete. The author provides guidance on how to choose the right materials for different types of structures and how to properly install them. Throughout the book, Ketchum emphasizes the importance of safety in mine structure design. He provides numerous examples of accidents and failures that have occurred in mines due to poor design or construction, and offers practical advice on how to avoid these pitfalls. Overall, The Design of Mine Structures is a valuable resource for anyone involved in the design or construction of structures for mines. Its clear and concise instructions, combined with its emphasis on safety, make it a must-read for engineers, architects, and mining professionals alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
