Book Reviews of Schaum's Outline of Strength of Materials 4th EditionBook Review: Excellent book for beginners and pros Summary: 5 StarsThis is an excellent book. Very well written and with very explicit examples for a beginner or a pro.
The new facts are the programs for some beams, columns and typical elements of strength of materials.
The reading is easy and the processes are very simple and the exmaples are very clear.
Book Review: Strength of Materials Summary: 5 StarsI found the book to be very useful in that it summarizes my class textbook and offers many worked out example problems. I have since purchased Schaum's for my other classes and I find them equally useful
Book Review: Well written book Summary: 5 StarsI have already finished courses in strength of materials etc., and am using this book as a reference, instead of those voluminous handbooks. The book is very well written and William Nash has an excellent, straight forward way of putting forth the key points. The book has all the information you might need for a first course in strength of materials. I also use this book in conjunction with a finite element text to give me the theoretical values for comparison. In summary, if you need a solid backup for your textbook and a useful reference, you won't go wrong with this one.
Book Review: An excellent book for first course. Summary: 4 StarsThis book is very good. First year students will find it very user friendly. Even a graduate engineer may need it to brush up previouly learned skills. All topics - e.g. material properties, stress, beam deflection, bending moments, columns, etc. are covered in very lucid manner. A must book for EVERY engineer.
