Structural analysis
By: Menon, Devdas
.
Publisher: New Delhi Narosa Publishing House 2023Edition: 3rd.Description: xvi, 22.61p. | Binding - Paperback | 24*18.5 cm.ISBN: 9788184877342.Subject(s): Civil EngineeringDDC classification: 624.171 Summary: About the book
STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS a basic textbook for undergraduate, now in its third edition, has undergone revisions following its first publication since 2008, to provide for better clarity and understanding of the subject. The text has been well received for its comprehensive explanation of the fundamentals of structural analysis in an innovative manner. The method of learning advocated in the book helps in developing analytical and intuitive skills, truly enjoying the learning and practice of structural analysis – not only for the beginner, but for those interested in re-learning afresh. Concepts that are crucial, such as the principle of virtual work, energy methods and displacement methods, have been explained in detail. All explanations are supplemented with numerous examples for better understanding and to develop a ‘physical feel’. Various shortcut methods of analysing indeterminate structures that are very easy to implement are discussed.
Key Features
