Fundamentals of Structural Analysis offers a comprehensive and well-integrated presentation of the foundational principles of structural analysis. It presents a rigorous treatment of the underlying theory and a broad spectrum of example problems to illustrate practical applications. The book is richly illustrated with a balance between realistic representations of actual structures and the idealized sketches customarily used in engineering practice. There is a large selection of problems that can be assigned by the instructor that range in difficulty from simple to challenging.
Harry H. West and Louis F. Geschwindner are the authors of Fundamentals of Structural Analysis, 2nd Edition, published by Wiley.
