This is a rewritten and edited copy of 'ʿUṣūl al-Ḥindissah' of Euclid, the famous Greek engineer and theoretical architect, which has been translated into Arabic by Isḥāq ibn Ḥanīn and edited by S̱ābit ibn Qurrat Ḥarrānī. Khvājah Naṣīr has added what he has found necessary using other books and his own talent and taste. The current copy includes fifteen articles by Khvājah Naṣīr al-Dīn Ṭūsī.
