Theatrum machinarum universale : of keurige verzameling van verscheide grote en zeer fraaie Waterwerken, Schutsluizen, Waterkeringen, Ophaal- en Draaibruggen. Met hare Gronden, Opstallen en Doorgefnedens ...
A Dutch engineering treatise of 1736 by Tielemann van der Horst and Jacob Polley, published by Petrus Schenk, collecting plates of waterworks, sluices, weirs and lifting and swing bridges for builders and engineers. The plates are measured technical drawings in plan and elevation, with hatched timber framing, bracing diagonals and joinery details that suggest structural diagrams a designer could draw on for geometric line work and grid layouts.
