Summary Table of Contents

Taking a visually-oriented approach, "Statics and Strength of Materials for Architecture and Building Construction, Third Edition," presents basic structural concepts in an easily understood manner. The authors introduce structural theory without relying on calculus. Instead using building examples and illustrations to supplement the book and introduce mathematically based material in a non-threatening way. This edition features many fully-worked example problems, a new supplemental CD-ROM, a section on retaining walls and clearer connections b... MORE
