Designed as a revision aid, this text text covers a large part of material for first-year civil engineering courses at universities and polytechnics. Topics include equilibrium of rigid structures, shearing forces and bending moments, various forms of stress, such as direct, bending, shear, torsional and their combinations, beam deflections and rotations, strain energy and virtual work. Each chapter gives a summary of essential facts and fully worked out to solutions to examination-type questions. There are also sections containing self-test problems and answers.
