COMMENTS OF THE PRESS. 

 COMMENTS OK THE PRESS ON FIRST EDITION. 



Professor Ketchum's work is the first book on the design of steel frame mill buildings; 

 in thoroughness and clearness it does full justice to its subject. It is the result of both 

 theoretical and practical acquaintance with the type of structure treated. It will prove of 

 value as well to the designing engineer as to teachers and students. Engineering News, 

 Oct. 15. 1903. 



It covers a broader field than its title indicates, as it is in reality a treatise on framed 

 structures. Railroad Gazette, Nov. 21, 1903. 



The book is new and presents the best modern practice and should be found valuable 

 to architects as well as engineers. Architects and Builder's Magazine, Jan., 1904. 



COMMENTS OF PRESS ON SECOND EDITION. 



This is the second edition of a well known treatise, which has already met with well 

 deserved appreciation among engineers. Engineering and Mining Journal, Nov. 17, 1906. 



The main impression we have derived from a survey of the contents of this book is 

 that it is of a sound practical character. Mechanical Engineer (London). 



The first edition of this book was issued in 1903. It was promptly received with 

 favor by engineers because it supplied for the first time a systematic treatment of the 

 details of American steel mill buildings. Valuable information was published regarding 

 cost analysis of such structures that is not generally available to engineers, especially to 

 the younger ones outside the estimating departments of bridge works. Professor H. S. 

 Jacoby in Engineering News.
