Architect and engineer . many in-teresting features as the shearing stressesin beams. A phase of it to which con-siderable study is now being given isthe rigid connection of this shear rein-forcement. A valuable contribution tothis discussion is a book by Mr. H. , B. Sc, C. E. Mr. Rogers hasdevoted considerable time to the studyas well as the practical design of rein-forced concrete. He is now connected asProfessor of Hydraulics and StructuralMechanics with one of the universitiesof Oregon. The book Shearing Stresses in Rein-forced Concrete Beams, gives a com-plete analytical comparison betweenloose stirrup designs and beams rein-forced with rigidly connected shearmembers. Some of the subjects dis-cussed are: Requirements of Beam De-sign, Cost of Steel and of Handling,Stress Lines, Designing of Shear and Anchorage of Shear and tables of many tests arealso given. The two appendixes dis-cuss the Anchorage of Web Reinforce-ment and Bond Stress. THE ARCHITECT AND ENGINEER 125. TAKING the PUBLICinto PARTNERSHIP Even on Michigan Avenue,Chicagos famous lake-front boule-vard, you easily recognize theRailway Exchange Building as alandmark. It is faced entirely withlight cream enamel Terra Cotta. Drawing by Hugh Ferriss Copyright, 1920, by National Terra Cotta Society RAILWAY EXCHANGE BUILDING Chicago, IlL . D. H. BURNHAM & CO., ArchitectB. /IS popular appreciation of Architecture grows and expands, the work of the architect/I becomes easier and more pleasant. Today there is a wider and increasingly more intelligent appreciation of design —tomorrow the architect will find his work aided by a greater public appreciation of theadvantages of certain building materials. Through the advertising pages of The Literary Digest, every month, National TerraCotta Society is acquainting the public—owners, investors, tenants, committee members—with those inherent properties of Terra Cotta which are familiar to every architect.
