Bassin M.G., Brodsky S.M., Wolkoff H. Statics and Strength of Materials

Third Edition. — McGraw-Hill, 1979. XiV, 447 p. — ISBN: 0070040303.This popular text provides the information students need for a non-calculus course in statics and strength of materials. Although U.S. Custromary units are still employed throughout, the text starts students thinking in metric terms by introducing SI metric units in illustrative examples and in student problems. Changes in relevant codes are incorporated to make students aware of current design procedures.Statics.
