Railroad Curves and Earthwork is a comprehensive guide to the design and construction of railroad tracks and earthworks, written by C. Frank Allen and first published in 1903. The book covers a range of topics related to railroad engineering, including the principles of curve resistance, the calculation of curves, and the design of earthworks such as embankments and cuttings. The book is intended for use by engineers and surveyors working in the field of railroad construction, as well as students of civil engineering. It includes numerous diagrams and illustrations to aid in understanding the concepts presented, as well as tables and formulas for calculating various aspects of railroad design. The first section of the book covers the principles of curve resistance, including the effects of centrifugal force, the role of superelevation, and the design of transition curves. The second section focuses on the design of earthworks, including the calculation of volumes for embankments and cuttings, the use of retaining walls and culverts, and the construction of drainage systems. Overall, Railroad Curves and Earthwork is a valuable resource for anyone involved in the design and construction of railroad tracks and earthworks, providing a thorough grounding in the principles and practices of the field.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
