It follows, from Eulcr's theory, that the strength of pillars to bear incipient flexure is directly as the fourth power of the diameter, and...sought for by Mr. Hodgkinson without success, and ho states his conviction that flexure commences with very small weights, such as could be of little... | |

...5 diameters, which yield wholly by crushing. Euler's theory assumes the resistance to flexure to be directly as the fourth power of the diameter, and inversely as the square of the length. It is to be remarked that so high a power as 4 for the diameter or 2 for the length has not been obtained... | |

...carry twenty tons, double that area will carry forty tons. The old rules gave the strength of columns as the fourth power of the diameter, and inversely as the square of the length. Hodgkinson used a fractional index 3'6 instead of 4, so that if you could not find the size wanted... | |
