Practicing engineers designing civil engineering structures, and
advanced students of civil engineering, require foundational
knowledge and advanced analytical and empirical tools. Mechanics in
Civil Engineering Structures presents the material needed by
practicing engineers engaged in the design of civil engineering
structures, and students of civil engineering. The book covers the
fundamental principles of mechanics needed to understand the
responses of structures to different types of load and provides the
analytical and empirical tools for design. The title presents the
mechanics of relevant structural elements-including columns, beams,
frames, plates and shells-and the use of mechanical models for
assessing design code application. Eleven chapters cover topics
including stresses and strains; elastic beams and columns;
inelastic and composite beams and columns; temperature and other
kinematic loads; energy principles; stability and second-order
effects for beams and columns; basics of vibration; indeterminate
elastic-plastic structures; plates and shells. This book is an
invaluable guide for civil engineers needing foundational
background and advanced analytical and empirical tools for
structural design.
