4.0 out of 5 stars
Includes Basics as Well as Relatively Arcane Topics
As with virtually every engineering handbook, this work includes familiar topics such as beam and column formulas, moments of inertia, etc. It has a section on timber engineering, which includes topics such as allowable stresses and adjustment factors, wood fasteners, etc. The main emphasis in this handbook appears to be building-construction related...

Not bad
The book gives large ammount of formulas to work with. However, users that are working with SI units must be aware that not all formulas are accurate. It is advisable to crossreference with other literature.

This review is from: Civil Engineering Formulas (Pocket Guide) (Paperback)
As with virtually every engineering handbook, this work includes familiar topics such as beam and column formulas, moments of inertia, etc. It has a section on timber engineering, which includes topics such as allowable stresses and adjustment factors, wood fasteners, etc.
The main emphasis in this handbook appears to be building-construction related. Information is presented on such topics as shear in buildings, stresses in thin shells, ponding of rainwater in roofs, water pressure, stability of slopes, vibration control in blasting, and much more.

Could be better,

This review is from: Civil Engineering Formulas (Hardcover)
Is not bad for use it as a reference, but only a few chapters like structural analysis and concrete are considerable usefull for me. If your looking for a reference for civil engineering may be this is the book; for other things like a review I did not considered useful.
