This book explains the properties for each type of spring, plus essential materials and methods. Few mechanical devices are entirely devoid of springs of one sort or another, but satisfactory operation rests on details such as spring strength and degree of movement. Yet information on calculating and making springs is not easily available. Designing springs can be difficult due to the number of variables and the complexity of the formula. The book also introduces the designer to charts and nomograms, which greatly simplify the process. Topics include tension and compression spring principles, compression and spring design, examples for winding coil springs, how to design, make, and coil a leaf spring, torsion spring, and I.C. engine valve springs.
