Synopsis

STATICS AND STRENGTH OF MATERIALS, 7/e is fully updated text and presents logically organized, clear coverage of all major topics in statics and strength of materials, including the latest developments in materials technology and manufacturing/construction techniques. A basic knowledge of algebra and trigonometry are the only mathematical skills it requires, although several optional sections using calculus are provided for instructors teaching in ABET accredited programs. A new introductory section on catastrophic failures shows students why these topics are so important, and 25 full-page, real-life application sidebars demonstrate the relevance of theory. To simplify understanding and promote student interest, the book is profusely illustrated.

Quatrième de couverture

This text covers the topics of statics and strength of materials at a level that is appropriate for industrial technology and engineering technology programs, as well as for university-level courses for non-engineering majors such as architecture. The book uses U.S. Customary and SI units equally in worked examples and practice problems. Sections requiring calculus are included for professors who teach in accredited programs in the technologies; these sections are marked with asterisks and may be omitted, depending on the level of coverage required, without a loss of continuity in the text. Chapters 1 through 8 cover the topic of statics, and include a review of unit conversions, trigonometry, and simultaneous equations. Chapters 9 through 18 are devoted to the study of strength of materials.

The new edition also includes:

  • A list of objectives at the beginning of each chapter to help students identify the specific skills they should acquire from the material covered;
  • More than 200 worked examples, and over 900 practice problems in varying degrees of difficulty;
  • An extensive list of professional organizations (including address, phone number, and website) for specific information on material properties and recommended practices related to manufacturing or construction;
  • New material on the use of mathematical technology (BASIC programs and graphing calculators) to solve simultaneous equations;
  • A new section that details the use of computer spreadsheets in determining beam deflections
