Review: For me the most important thing is that I increase my skills in this area. I'll recommend this book. - The bestest book practice in this world. I learned a lot. Congratulations for autor of this book. I will recommend this books. It's fantastic and greatest!!! You learn a lot in something so complex and hard that it is Structural Analysis. For me the most important thing is that I increase my skills in this area, now I feel more secure and I see it very easy. I will recommend this book.
Review: Good Exercise Book - Being a professional structural engineer and a passionate blogger in the field of structural engineering, I came across this book very recently. This book addresses the solution to the most common problem that many structural engineering students have in the early phases of their education. All the students know what is a shear force and a bending moment diagram, when it comes to solving the complicated system, everyone gets startled and many of them even fail to solve such problems. But this book tries it's best to explain it to students how they can break apart a bigger complicated system, into small pieces. Once you achieve the equilibrium state in these small sub-systems, then you can put the pieces together to solve the entire thing as one system. I was honestly impressed by the way Jakob has tried to explain how to break a complicated system into small sub-systems and how easy it is to find the solution to any system without writing down long complicated equations but by just following few simple rules that he has laid out. This was achieved by his hard work as an assistant professor, as well as carefully understanding the common problems that every student have while solving these complex system. The book lacks the fundamentals of structural engineering, and this has been pointed out by the author of the book on the first page itself. He warns the reader to proceed after having good fundaments about basic solid mechanics like Shear force and Bending moment. But if you have a good understanding of SF and BM diaphragms and sign conventions and how to solve a simple beam, then you can definitely start using this book to have a strong grasp on Structural Analysis. Remember, this is an exercise book, not a conceptual book. This will help you in achieving faster solutions to complicated problems and once you find a solution, it will intuitively make sense how you got it. It will make you a sharper engineer who can quickly solve the complicated structural systems without using a software. I have enjoyed working through it's problems and I would recommend you to add this book into your library.
