[844]-852) and index; Loads -- Material characteristics -- Geometrical properties -- Analysis of beam -- Thin-walled members and torsion -- Strength of joints -- Stability of structures -- Fatigue and fracture -- Vibration of structures -- Experimental stress analysis -- Reinforced concrete -- Arches and frames -- Finite element modelling -- Offshore structures -- Wind loaded structures -- Structures under seismic excitation -- Blast response of structures -- Response of structures to man-made vibration -- Safety auditing of concrete structures N2 - Exhaustive in its coverage, the book provides a firm foundation of the underlying concepts in the field of structural analysis and also imparts a modern flavour by including topics that are of relevance to present day engineers. The text is interspersed with a large number of solved examples, 'try out' exercises and chapter-end problems to test understanding of concepts UR - http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0639/2005432922-d.html UR - http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0639/2005432922-t.html ER -
