Synopsis

This book introduces engineering and architectural students to the basic techniques for analyzing most common structural elements, including beams, trusses, frames, cables and arches. It covers the classical methods of analysis for determinate and indeterminate structures, and gives an introduction to matrix formulation, the basis of computer analysis. About 60 per cent of the homework problems have been revised or are new. The new edition also includes computer problems requiring a computer solution rather than a hand analysis. These will provide readers with considerable insight into structural behaviour, give students practice using a powerful tool for analysis, and demonstrate how to find an optimal solution.
