PRACTICE COURSES
751-752: Railroad Surveying:
6 hours a week.
This course supplements 701, Curves and Earthwork. The class is divided into
squads, each squad making complete surveys, maps, profiles, and estimates for a
mile of located line. (Spring and Fall.)
Professor Saunders and Mr. Donnally.
754: Elementary Model Analysis:
6 hours a week.
The first part of the course will be devoted to the use of Beggs' Apparatus
for the analysis of stresses in structural frames. This will be followed
by the theory of photoelasticity and its applications to the analysis of stresses
in plane models—particularly machine parts. The course will consist principally
of laboratory work in model making and analysis, with sufficient
lectures to adequately cover the necessary theory. (Winter.)
Professor Saunders and Assistant Professor Evans.
755-756: Bridge Drafting:
6 hours a week.
This course accompanies 705, Bridges. Each student is required to make
complete design and detail drawings of one plate girder and one selected type of
bridge truss. (Winter and Spring.)
Professor Saunders and Associate Professor Hesse.
