Title: Applied statics andstrength of materials
Description: This book is written at a fundamental level for engineering and construction students to provide current information on design and standards from the American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC), the American Concrete Institute (ACI), and the American Institute of Timber Construction (AITC). The concepts are supported by numerous examples and, most importantly, an explanation of the links between the most basic cornerstones of equilibrium, stress and strain.

The appendices provide thorough coverage of steel and timber section properties as well as beam loading information relative to shear, moment of inertia, and deflection.
Subjects: Strength of materials, Statics, Structural design, Strains and stresses
