The elements of the mechanics of materials and of power transmission
An engineering textbook by William Richard King, published by John Wiley & Sons in New York in 1911, teaching mechanics of materials and power transmission to students and practicing engineers. The plates are line diagrams: force polygons, beam and truss loading schemes, dimension arrows and dashed construction lines, lettered joints and reactions—usable as spare geometric linework, arrow vocabulary, and annotated measurement marks.
