Product Description Statics and Mechanics of Materials, 3/e is ideal for introductory combined Statics and Mechanics of Materials courses found in ME, CE, AE, and Engineering Mechanics departments. A comprehensive and well-illustrated introduction to the theory and application of statics and mechanics of materials. The text presents a commitment to the development of student problem-solving skills and features many pedagogical aids unique to Hibbeler texts. Review “It is very difficult to find a text book that would compete with Hibbeler’s readability and clarity at the undergraduate level.” — Fady F. Barsoum, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University “The large variety of illustrated homework problems are helpful for class demonstrations, group problem solving and real situation homework assignments. The inside covers are a very handy resource for both students and instructors.” — Barbara Lograsso, Michigan Technological University “Nice formulation and presentation of equations with clear drawings and photographs.” — Marehalli Prasad, Stevens Institute of Technology About the Author R.C.
