Publisher Comments:

The Ultimate Roark's now includes--

* New material

* More tables and case studies

* Easier-to-read notations and figures

* More accessible layout

* Consistent table and equation numbering

* More on experimental stress analysis and stress concentrations

* New data on material behavior under stress and strain including appendix on composite materials

* Updated tables

With each succeeding edition, this renowned reference has proven itself as the be-all, end-all resource for designers, engineers, and analysts working with calculations of loads and stress. The Seventh Edition is no exception, as it carries on the book's tradition of presenting equations and diagrams of structural properties all in an easy-to-use, thumb-through format. Offering readability, the latest edition of Roark's Formulas for Stress and Strain is truly the best Roark's yet, and the one reference that you'll turn to most, project after project, year after year.

Synopsis:

This title is designed for engineers and analysts working with calculations of loads and stress. It includes information on joints, bearing and shear stress, experimental stress analysis, and stress concentrations as well as material behaviour and stress/strain measurement.

Synopsis:

Solutions-based approach to quick calculations in structural element design and analysis

Now updated with 30% new material, Roark Formulas for Stress and Strain, Seventh Edition, is the ultimate resource for designers, engineers, and analysts who need to calculate loads and stress. This landmark reference from Warren Young and Richard Budynas provides you with equations and diagrams of structural properties in an easy-to-use, thumb-through format. Updated, with a user-friendly page layout, this new edition includes expanded coverage of joints, bearing and shear stress, experimental stress analysis, and stress concentrations, as well as material behavior coverage and stress and strain measurement. Youll also find expanded tables and cases; improved notations and figures in the tables; consistent table and equation numbering; and verification of correction factors.
