Focusing on mastery of the basics, Applied Statics and Strength of Materials, Fourth Edition, presents a non-calculus based elementary, analytical, and practical approach to the principles and physical concepts of statics and strength of materials. The book features a rigorous, comprehensive step-by-step problem-solving approach; an abundance of worked-out example problems and homework problems; and a focus on principles and applications for many fields of engineering technology. Features of this text include: • A summary at the end of each chapter presents a thumbnail sketch of the important concepts presented in the chapter. • Problems at the end of each chapter are grouped and referenced to a specific section. These problems are followed by a group of supplemental problems provided for review purposes. Generally, problems are arranged in order of increasing difficulty. • Each chapter is written to introduce more complex material gradually. • Design and analysis aids are included in an extensive appendix section, making the book self-contained. Both U.S. Customary and SI data are presented. Booknews New edition of a textbook which presents an elementary, analytical, and practical approach to the principles and physical concepts of statics and strength of materials. Coverage includes resultants of coplanar force systems; friction; area moments of inertia; properties of materials; torsion in circular sections; the design and stresses of beams; combined stresses; columns; and pressure vessels. The emphasis is on the mastery of basic principles as a way of solving real-life problems. Intended primarily for use in two- or four-year technology programs in engineering, construction, or architecture. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
