Abstrakt

Właściwości inżynieryjne materiałów budowlanych są niezbędną wiedzą przy projektowaniu konstrukcji. W 1885 roku agenci koronni ds. kolonii opublikowali badanie dotyczące odporności kamienia maltańskiego na pękanie i kruszenie, próbując opracować tabele obliczeniowe naprężeń dla lokalnego kamieniarstwa.

W artykule omówiono ewolucję map geologicznych w XIX wieku, a następnie przedstawiono treść niniejszej publikacji. Formacje geologiczne opisane na najnowszej mapie są wykorzystywane do dziś. Na koniec omówiono przydatność tych tabel w ustaleniu właściwości mechanicznych, jakie może wytrzymać kamień maltański. Do określenia jakości omawianego w tej publikacji kamienia wykorzystano dostępną wówczas mapę geologiczną, a mianowicie opublikowaną przez Andrew Leitha Adamsa w 1870 r., która okazała się umiarkowanie dokładna. Zastosowane procedury badawcze były zgodne z przyjętą wówczas praktyką laboratoryjną. Retrospektywna analiza zawartości tej publikacji pokazuje, że wyniki zawierały pewne błędy matematyczne.
