Develop a thorough understanding of the mechanics of materials - an area essential for success
in mechanical civil and structural engineering -- with the analytical approach and
problem-solving emphasis found in Goodno Gere's leading MECHANICS OF MATERIALS Enhanced SI
9th Edition. This book focuses on the analysis and design of structural members subjected to
tension compression torsion and bending. This ENHANCED EDITION guides you through a proven
four-step problem-solving approach for systematically analyzing dissecting and solving
structure design problems and evaluating solutions. Memorable examples helpful photographs and
detailed diagrams and explanations demonstrate reactive and internal forces as well as
resulting deformations. You gain the important foundation you need to pursue further study as
you practice your skills and prepare for the FE exam.
