Designed for an introductory course, Analysis of Structures: Strength and Behaviour adopts a modern and practical approach to structural analysis.
The book provides a balanced coverage of concepts, basic definitions, and analytical techniques in the field of structural analysis. Beginning with fundamental topics such as loads and stresses, the book exhaustively covers beams, columns, and thin-walled sections. Advanced topics such as fatigue and fracture, vibration of structures, wind engineering, and blast and earthquake response of structures are given special treatment. Important current topics such as offshore structures, safety auditing of structures, construction-induced vibration, and experimental stress analysis would equip students with the cutting edge technology in this field. A large number of worked-out examples and problems have been provided in the text to encourage the reader towards independent problem solving. 9780195670035
