The new second edition of the Structural Engineering Reference Manual (STRM2) is a comprehensive resource for SE candidates preparing for the NCEES Structural I and II and the California state (BPELS) structural exam. STRM2 has been updated to reflect the codes currently tested on the exams. Since the problems on all three SE exams are code-based, being familiar with and understanding the relevant codes is essential for exam success. The Structural Engineering Reference Manual is organized with this in mind. Appropriate sections of national codes are introduced and explained in a concise, straight-forward manner, illustrated with examples. Each example focuses on one specific code issue and supplies a clear interpretation of the applicable section of the code. Eight chapters review the main topic areas covered on the SE exams: Reinforced concrete design Foundations and retaining structures Prestressed concrete design Structural steel design Timber design Design of reinforced masonry Seismic design Design of bridges There are practice problems, designed to test your understanding of the codes and concepts and to prepare you for the exam experience. Complete, step-by-step solutions are provided for all problems. At the end of the book, appendices provide valuable tables and charts of information--saving you valuable time during the exam. The comprehensive index ensures that you can locate necessary information quickly when the pressure is on. And a separate index to every code mentioned in the Reference Manual allows easy access to references to AASHTO, AASHTOSD, ACI, AISC, ASD, BCRMS, LRFD, and LRFD2.

Item in very good condition! Textbooks may not include supplemental items i.e. CDs, access codes etc.

This book gives students of architecture an understanding of the fundamental theories and practice behind the creation of architectural structures, helping them to develop an intuitive understanding of structural engineering.The book is divided into four sections: "Structures in nature" looks at structural principles found in natural objects. "Theory" covers general structural theory as well as explaining the main forces encountered in engineering. "Structural prototypes" includes examples of modelmaking and load testing that can be carried out by students. The fourth section, "Case studies", presents a diverse range of examples from around the world – actual buildings that apply the theories and testing described in the previous sections.The straightforward, informative text is illustrated with specially drawn diagrams, historical examples, models, CAD visualizations, construction details, and photographs of completed buildings. As well as providing a valuable reference and sourcebook, the book will give students and newly qualified architects the technical confidence to collaborate with structural engineers.

Structures cannot be created without engineering theory, and design rules have existed from the earliest times for building Greek temples, Roman aqueducts and Gothic cathedrals — and later, for steel skyscrapers and the frames for aircraft. This book is, however, not concerned with the description of historical feats, but with the way the structural engineer sets about his business. Galileo, in the seventeenth century, was the first to introduce recognizably modern science into the calculation of structures; he determined the breaking strength of beams. In the eighteenth century engineers moved away from this ‘ultimate load’ approach, and early in the nineteenth century a formal philosophy of design had been established — a structure should remain elastic, with a safety factor on stress built into the analysis. This philosophy held sway for over a century, until the first tests on real structures showed that the stresses confidently calculated by designers could not actually be measured in practice. Structural engineering has taken a completely different path since the middle of the twentieth century; plastic analysis reverts to Galileo's objective of the calculation of ultimate strength, and powerful new theorems now underpin the activities of the structural engineer.This book deals with a technical subject, but the presentation is completely non-mathematical. It makes available to the engineer, the architect and the general reader the principles of structural design.

This book concentrates on the nonlinear static and dynamic analysis of structures and structural components that are widely used in everyday engineering applications. It presents unique methods for nonlinear problems which permits the correct usage of powerful linear methods. Every topic is thoroughly explained and includes numerical examples. The new concepts, theories and methods introduced simplify the solution of the complex nonlinear problems.
