■ If 'server not found' error appears, the following method can be used:
In the address bar of the browser, change '.in' to '.com'
■ All the topics can be accessed through the 'Blog Archive' also
It is given on the left side of each page
■ Tip to minimize scrolling of pages:
• On many occasions, we will be reading some descriptions or calculations based on a fig.
• The fig. will be at the upper part of the page and the descriptions on the lower part.
• Then we will have to scroll the page up and down frequently.
Let us see an example:
• The screenshot of a fig. related to the analysis of slab is shown below. It can be seen in chapter 5.1.

• Naturally, the calculations based on that fig. will be given below it.
• The screenshot of those calculations is given below:

• So the reader will have to continuously scroll the page upwards and downwards alternately, to get access to both the portions.
■ The following tip can help to avoid such scrolling:
• The steps given below were carried out in Chrome browser in Windows 7 operating system. For other browsers and operating systems, please seek expert advice.
1. We are already on the page and the fig. is in front of us.
2. Copy the url of the page from the address bar of the browser
• For copying, click and drag in the address bar to highlight the url completely. Then press ctrl+c
3. Open a new window of the browser
• For this, click on the three vertical dots on the right side top corner and then select 'New window'
4. Paste the url in the address bar of the new window
• For this, click on the address bar and press ctrl+v
• We will get a new window showing the same page
5. Press widows key + right arrow
• The new window will be docked on the right side of the screen. It will occupy the exact right half of the screen
6. Now click on the original window to activate it
• Press windows key + left arrow
• The original window will be docked on the left side of the screen. It will occupy the exact left half of the screen
7. Screen shot of the two windows docked side by side is shown in the fig. below:

• Use the vertical and horizontal scroll bars of each windows to bring the required portions to the screen
    ♦ Calculation steps on the left window
    ♦ Fig. on the right window
• Thus continuous upward and downward scrolling can be avoided
