Sinossi

Rail Bridges explores the fascinating intersection of architecture and mechanical engineering in railway bridge design. It highlights how engineers ensure the safe passage of heavy trains through careful structural design, material selection, and accurate load analysis. Understanding the forces at play, from the train's weight to environmental factors, is vital. Did you know early railway bridges often failed due to a lack of understanding of dynamic loads and material properties? This book emphasizes a holistic approach, integrating load modeling, material choices, and structural design for safe and cost-effective bridges.

 
The book progresses logically, starting with fundamental principles and moving through load analysis, material properties (like steel and concrete), structural design methodologies, and construction techniques. Real-world case studies illustrate the application of these principles. It's a valuable resource for students, practicing engineers, and railway professionals alike, offering insights into both foundational knowledge and emerging trends in rail infrastructure.

Here - Where the Black Designers...

Cheryl D. Holmes-Miller, Crystal...

Designer, activist, and educator Cheryl D. Holmes-Miller is legendary for her  
decades of scholarship and advocacy, and as a touchstone and conscience for the  
design profession. In HERE: Where the Black Designers Are, Holmes-Miller  
documents the history of—and answers to—the question she has been asking for  
decades: “Where are the Black designers?”  
Holmes-Miller explores this essential question through the lens of her own  
development as a designer and leader, beginning with her own family and its rich  
multiethnic history. She narrates her experiences as a design student at Rhode  
Island School of Design (RISD), Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA), and Pratt  
Institute, leading up to her oft-cited Pratt thesis examining barriers to success for  
Black designers. Holmes-Miller describes the work of her eponymous studio for  
noted clients that included NASA, Time Inc., and the nascent Black Entertainment  
Television (BET), as well as the story of her later critiques of the industry in Print 
magazine and other design publications. Holmes-Miller also recounts the parallel  
history of collective efforts by fellow scholars and advocates over the past fifty  
years to identify and celebrate Black designers. 
HERE is part memoir, part historical investigation, and an urgent call for justice  
and recognition for Black designers. 
“This book is representative of the shoulders on which we, as Black graphic  
designers, stand. These are the legacies we are fighting to uphold and the torches  
we must continue to carry. The journey of the Black designer has not been easy. It  
isn’t easy. And while we may be left out of history books, this is a reminder that we  
are here. Always have been. Always will be.”—Tré Seals, Vocal Type

Superbook - The World of...

John Rain

If you mention the word ‘superhero’ these days, everyone and their mum can tell you a potted history of it all, because they’ve sat through numerous phases, extended TV series, and animated side-specials of expansive character-development, culminating in extraordinary final chapters, with the screen literally stacked full of characters battling one another while your eyes bleed with excitement and spectacle.

But before 1997, people would generally only think of a few things: Christopher Reeve smiling as he keeps a watchful eye over Earth’s atmosphere, Michael Keaton running around Gotham while dressed in molded rubber. Nicholas Hammond's Spider-Man being hauled up a wall on a rope, pretending to grip it, while also being a foot away from it. Bill Bixby trying not to get angry, Flash Gordon arriving in another galaxy, that was essentially a soft porn film, Dolph Lundgren mumbling in broken English while Frank Langella hammed behind a mask, and how Michael Crawford dressed like a bird was the closest thing Disney had to a cinematic universe.

Despite starting on a high in 1978, by 1997 there could be no doubt that the genre was dead. Out was the sheen of verisimilitude, and in were Bat-credit-cards, ugly CGI, slashed budgets, rubber nipples and Martin Sheen in a girdle.

So, whatever happened to the heroes? Join John Rain as he walks through every film of note from 1978 to 1997, and examines just what went wrong, and how. Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it’s SUPERBOOK.
