Journal of the Association of Engineering Societies
A journal of engineering papers issued in 1881 by the Association of Engineering Societies in New York for its professional membership. The four plates show technical diagrams: a truss load chart with bending-moment curves, a mine shaft survey plan, a bending-beam sketch with dimensioned forces, and a road cross-section with survey stations and trees; designers may take from them the clean, measured linework and labelled annotation typical of nineteenth-century engineering drawing.
