Elements Of Civil Engineering by John Millington is a mid-19th-century practical manual that blends theoretical principles with hands-on instruction for beginners and practicing engineers in Britain and the United States. The work surveys arches, stability, materials, and the conversion of theory into design, covering three arch-loading approaches and how long voussoirs, proper joints, and sound foundations—along with abutments, wing walls, haunches, and facing walls—affect longevity and geometry. It compares stone, brick, timber, and cast iron as construction materials, addressing oxidation, thermal expansion, ventilation, and humidity, and provides rules for arch centring, joints, voussoirs, keystones, and spandrel treatment. Bridges are treated from stone and timber to cast iron and suspension, with case studies of major schemes and a discussion of economy, alignment, and reliability. Railways are traced from early tram roads to wrought iron rails, with bedding, chair-and-block systems, and layout considerations. Inland navigation and canals cover locks, dams, aqueducts, feeders, and towpaths. The volume also offers extensive guidance on drawing, geometry, mensuration, mouldings, and field memoranda, emphasizing integrated education, on-site investigation, and cost-conscious planning.
