Summary: "Steam Shovels and Steam Shovel Work" by Edward Adolph Hermann is a technical publication written in the late 19th century. This work provides an in-depth examination of steam shovels and their operational applications in civil engineering and construction projects. It addresses the evolution, types, and effective utilization of steam shovels, stressing importance in improving efficiency and reducing costs in excavation work. The opening of the text outlines the origins of the manuscript, which was initially presented as a paper to a local society of civil engineers, responding to a clear demand for knowledge in this specialized area. Hermann discusses the invention and evolution of steam shovels, detailing their essential functions in various excavation tasks on railways and other construction sites. The section emphasizes a practical approach, combining theoretical knowledge with hands-on experience, to better inform those unfamiliar with steam shovels about their design and effective operation. As Hermann develops the topics covered, he employs illustrations to aid comprehension. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
