Structural AnalysisUpplaga 7

Structural Analysis, Seventh Edition in SI Units is developed for the effective study of the theory and application of structural analysis as it applies to trusses, beams, and frames. Emphasis is placed on developing the student's ability to both model and analyze a structure and to provide realistic applications encountered in professional practice. Although technology has reduced the often lengthy calculations required when large or complicated structures are analyzed, it is Hibbeler's opinion that students taking a first course in this subject should also be well versed in the classical methods. Practice in applying these methods will develop a deeper understanding of the basic engineering sciences of statics and mechanics of materials. This book goes beyond theory and steps into the information age by specially developing animations that breathe new life into classical concepts. Newly developed animations complement the video solutions as part of an enhanced visual learning kit that aids understanding. Anchored by the classic Hibbeler's methods of problem-solving, this is the definitive authority on structural theory gracing lecture halls today. The book contains these New and Enhanced ElementsAnimations help students visualize the invisible forces governing structures24/7 video solution walkthroughs offer independent revisionDiversity of problems and probing analysis build critical thinkingRealistic diagrams and photos illustrate theories in practiceComprehensive and concise organization pave the way for systematic studyWide-ranging, time-prudent resources for instructors and students.
