The behaviour of materials when subjected to different types of loads is of basic interest to engineers. This book, developed for an introductory course on strength of materials for engineering and architecture courses, provides a comprehensive coverage of the concepts and principles of mechanics of materials in clear and easy-to-understand language. Students will appreciate the large number of worked-out examples and exercises that have been included to give them an exposure to a variety of situations requiring analysis of systems for their strength under stress.

Special Features:

  1. The subject matter is presented in a simple and lucid language.
  2. Each chapter deals precisely with definitions, analysis, derivations and applications.
  3. A large number of worked-out examples incorporating a variety of problems and exercises.
B S Basavarajaiah was professor and head of the department of civil engineering at KREC, Surathkal for 18 years and principal of the same college for 5 years. He has extensive experience in teaching undergraduate and postgraduate students, and has been a consultant to several prestigious civil engineering projects. P Mahadevappa was professor of civil engineering at KREC, Surathkal. He has taught undergraduate and postgraduate students and guided students in their M Tech thesis.
