This book does a reasonable job of explaining the principles behind the sometimes difficult subjects of statics and strength of materials. The problems in the book are well thought out and are graded from easy to hard.

This book does a reasonable job of explaining the principles behind the sometimes difficult subjects of statics and strength of materials. The solutions manual in the book is good and includes complete solutions for about 2 out of 3 of the problems in the book. It also comes with a good selection of example problems that help with solving the problems at the end of the sections.

The new edition of this easy-to-understand text, designed for a non-calculus course in statics and strength of materials, requires only a working knowledge of algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. In addition to expanded coverage and better organization of information, it addresses new topics such as accuracy and precision, solution of simultaneous equations, rolling resistance, mechanical properties of materials, composite beams, reinforced concrete beans, plastic analysis of beams, design of shear connectors, and more.

This book is an ideal book for anyone who wants to learn these subjects, but who also wants an approach that is not calculus-based. It is well laid out. It is loaded with many good examples, and has many additional problems, with the odd-numbered problems answered in the back of the book. I have been studying these subjects for over fifty years, and the book has what I would expect, for a beginning text dealing with these subjects. The explanations are very clear, and easy to understand. A valuable book for anyone interested in mechanical or structural design.

Presently, I am a student who is taking an Applied Statics class that is structured around this book. The teacher lectures directly from the book. In my experience in all of academia, have never encountered a book so utterly useless and vague. It does not provide any clear direction, it provides an equation, and an answer, but no means to get between the two. The explanations, if available, are laughable. I am using resources courtesy of various search engines and online posts from help sites that provide a more thorough explanation of processes involved. The book itself does not appear of been updated in at least my lifetime. I understand that the concepts remain the same, but update and do a more thorough job of explaining the processes involved, and the equations needed.

If you are a student and your statics class uses this book, do yourself a favor and drop the class, and try to substitute, you will never encounter a text more infuriating than this.

This is the same thing as the american version, ignore the Indian label. Very minor differences, save some money fellow engineering students, you know you're broke enough as it is

First off, I'm about a month into the class with this book as the textbook. I have to say this book is downright evil. I can't follow any of the examples to see where the numbers come from, what the symbology means or why any of the math works the way it does. The book gives the reader 1 example for about 10 very different situations per chapter. So if I'm doing a problem from the end of the chapter, I get, essentially, maybe 1 example from the reading that is remotely similar to the problem to instruct me on what to do, but again, the reading does not decode anything. A good analogy would be this: I give you 2 egyptian hieroglyph and I tell you what they mean and how they work together in 1 limited hypothetical situation, now you decode the rest of the language. This book seems to have been written for people who already understand the subject and don't need to have anything broken into smaller, easier to digest pieces.

I've had to, on several occasions, dig out the books for the 2 technical math classes I've already taken, to find examples of how the equations and formulas should work but there are only a few situations where I can do that. So I'm usually just stuck.

The irony is that the program I'm in is Mechanical Drafting and my teachers tell me that the entire point to the program is to communicate ideas and concepts, but then they pick books like this where I can't decipher 9/10's of the math.

Exactly the same as the normal version which is $600 more expensive

Extremely disappointed. Book binding was broken, there was graffiti on a lot of the pages, and it looked like it had been dropped in a puddle. Only reason I haven't returned it is because I need it to pass my class.

Exactly what I needed.

Perfect addition to our library
