Annotation
Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The great advancement made of late years in the sci ence of civil engineering, and the increased number of works promoted by public and private interests, in the formation of roads, canals, and railways, call for a more extended view of the theory of the construction and measurement of such works than 'has hitherto been given to the world, both for the better instruction of pupils, and for the facilitation of the labours of practical men. With the above object in view I have prepared the following work, especially adapted to the measure ment of railways, and comprising in its extent a greater compilation of Tables and Essays, on the impor tant features of this subject, than has hitherto been introduced.
