Now updated with 30% new material: the ultimate resource for designers, engineers, and analyst working with calculations of loads and stress. This landmark reference continues its tradition of presenting equations and diagrams of structural properties--all in an easy-to-use, thumb-through format. New to this edition: expanded coverage of joints, bearing and shear stress, experimental stress analysis, and stress concentrations, plus material behavior coverage and stress and strain measurement. Now includes expanded tables and cases; improved notations and figures in the tables; consistent table and equation numbering; verification of correction factors. Features a solutions-based approach to quick calculations in structural element design and analysis.
