"Strength of Materials: Mechanics of Solids in SI Units" is an all-inclusive text for students as it takes a detailed look at all concepts of the subject. Distributed evenly in 35 chapters, important focuses are laid on stresses, strains, inertia, force, beams, joints and shells amongst others. Each chapter contains numerous solved examples supported by exercises and chapter-end questions which aid to the understanding of the concepts explained. A book which has seen, foreseen and incorporated changes in the subject for 50 years, it continues to be one of the most sought after texts by the students for all aspects of the subject.
