description
Intended as a main text which covers all years of an undergraduate course, this book has two aims: to cover the principles of mechanics and basic structural concepts; and to explain computer methods in structural analysis. In the new edition, the second chapter has been completely re-written to make it clearer and easier for first-year students, and there is increased coverage of plane statistics and introductory vector analysis. There is a greater design-based emphasis and more material on the principle of virtual work. Computer methods are referred to throughout and computer applications are included. New worked examples (with solutions) and new end-of-chapter problems are included, and references to the instability of linkages and the lateral buckling of beams have been added.
