Church, Irving P[orter], 1851- [from old catalog] · New York, J. Wiley & sons · leaf 454
t of the cross sections inthe corresponding portion of the beam, rib, or other struc-ture, the value of this compression (in lbs. or tons) beingmeasured by the length of the parallel ray in the forcediagram. Suppose that in some way (to be explained sub-sequently) the special equilibrium polygon… … Fig. 404. scale of the force-diagram on the right be 200 lbs. to theinch, say, and that of the space-diagram (on the left) 30 ft.to the inch. The cross section m lies in a portion TK, of the rib, cor-responding to the rod or segment be of the equilibriumpolygon; hence its anti-stress-resultant is a…
