5.0 out of 5 stars This is a must-have for a stress analysis engineer
Reviewed in the United States on September 1, 2013

The usefulness of this book does not require many words. It has most any formula you'll need with plenty of options for boundary conditions of the situation. I ordered this as "good condition" and that was an accurate description: it's a little rough, but has all the information in it. If you want a pristine book, go with new, but realize the information in it is still the same as a used one, just ignore the underlines, etc. The rating is for the book, however, and it is great.

5.0 out of 5 stars An abridged review of the structural engineering problems.
Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2013

The book is a complete review of the most used formulas of the structural engineering.
I appreciate very much Part 2 dealing with principles and methods in a very short nevertheless comprehensive way and giving references too. Moreover Part 3 is giving additional theory which is very useful for a correct use of the formulas.
It is a very powerful tool for quick preliminary design of mechanical structures and components.
I would like to have an additional chapter dealing with shock and vibrations.

At first I thought this book is good for someone who have just started to learn solid mechanics. I found that it is not.However,This is such a great reference book.Everything about stress and strain is in here. There are many formulas and table for various shapes and types of member and joint. This is good for a mechnical and civil engineer.

The book is a gift and I can't really comment on it. I do however, want to say that Melz Books has the best customer service I've seen in a long time. They responded quickly to an email request. They understood the nature of the gift, the urgency, and made the decison making easy. They shipped within 2 hours of ordering. MELZ BOOKS ROCKS!

Exactly what I was looking for. I have older editions of this book but they are in storage at the moment. Concise, and easily readable, provides solutions that are within engineering tolerances / accuracy for most types of problems encountered in the real world. Typically simpler than using the computer for small problems, or for preliminary design to later build a computer model for more accurate analysis.

This book is the standard for stress analysis done by hand. Any aerospace engineer worth his salt knows this book and how to get preliminary results on a wide range of structural problems. Its a fine edition to any technical library.

日本には機械設計技術者のバイブル的な機械設計便覧があるが，本書は機械設計便覧で省略されている理論の部分や，式の導出の部分の説明があり，教科書的な使い方もできる。また，公式集としても非常に使いやすく，機械設計屋さんや，機械系の学生さんにもお薦めの一冊です。
