DESCRIPTION:
The approach adopted in this text develops this type of intuition by presenting extensive, realistic problems and case studies together with computer simulation, which allows rapid exploration of how a structure responds to changes in geometry and physical parameters.. Distinct from many undergraduate textbooks, which are focused mainly on either teaching manual analysis methods and applying them to simple, idealized structures or reformulating structural analysis methods in terms of matrix notation, this text instead encourages the student to develop intuition about structural behavior. The authors of this text recognize the notion that engineers reason about behavior using simple models and intuition they acquire through problem solving. Fundamentals of Structural Engineering provides a balanced, seamless treatment of both classic, analytic methods and contemporary, computer-based techniques for conceptualizing and designing a structure. The book?s principle goal is to
Five Stars I liked the book.. Great book to have It is exactly what I need in structural analysis. It is simple and easy to understand. Despite some typo and errors in examples solution.

Faraji has close to three decades of teaching, research, publication, and consulting experience and has taught a wide range of courses at the undergraduate and at the graduate level, such as Concret
From the reviews:“The intended audience of this book is that of students majoring in civil engineering and architecture who have obtained preliminary concepts of engineering mechanics and mechanics of materials. 1256, 2013) . … The book is sufficiently comprehensive and can be used for elementary and higher-level undergraduate subjects.” (Irina Alexandrovna Bolgrabskaya, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. The main objective is to develop the student’s ability to analyze structures using manual computational procedures and validate computer-based predictions of structural response
