Engineering the City

$15.00
by Matthys Levy & Richard Panchyk

Where does garbage go? What happens when someone flushes a toilet? How is a tunnel built under water? Through a lively narrative that is loaded with projects, experiments and construction diagrams, "Engineering the City" introduces the principles that explain how structures are built, how they work and how they effect the environment of a city and the land outside. The authors explore both the visible (roads, railroads, bridges, airports, telephone wires and power lines) and the hidden (sewers, plumbing pipes, wires, tunnels, canals and cables) elements that make up our infrastructure.
