A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
The use of iron and steel in the construction of fireproof buildings has developed a new type of structure, which calls for the application of the principles that govern the designs of bridges, etc. Technical and other journals, by devoting much space to descriptions of the steel skeleton type of building, have recognized the importance of the subject and some have published good rules for the guidance of designers. Many buildings are now in course of erection in different cities which are examples of this method of construction, and these afford an opportunity to compare the designs and to see how widely the practice of architects varies.
