The first two editions of Structural Analysis were distinguished by the clarity and quality of the explanations of the basic concepts supported by detailed step-by-step procedures for analysis and worked-out examples. The Third Edition builds on this foundation with 30% more (new) examples and about 40% new problems to increase the total number to over 600 problems. The coverage of loads on structures is updated to meet the latest ASCE Standards, and the treatment of the force method has been expanded by including the topic of Three-Moment Equation.
