"Design of a Steel Railroad Warehouse" by Louis Liston Tallyn is a thesis that explores the advantages of using steel instead of wood to build warehouses for railroads. Focusing on a specific project for the Illinois Central Railroad in New Orleans, the thesis dives into the nitty-gritty details of designing a 600-foot long steel warehouse, covering everything from choosing the right materials to making sure the structure is strong enough to handle heavy loads. It's all about proving that steel is a smarter, safer, and more cost-effective choice for these types of buildings, offering a blueprint for future construction projects.
