Introduction

The objective of this book is to develop an understanding of the basic principles of structural analysis. Emphasizing the intuitive classical approach, Structural Analysis covers the analysis of statically determinate and indeterminate beams, trusses, and rigid frames. It also presents an introduction to the matrix analysis of structures.

The book is divided into three parts. Part One presents a general introduction to the subject of structural engineering. It includes a chapter devoted entirely to the topic of loads because attention to this important topic is generally lacking in many civil engineering curricula. Part Two, consisting of Chapters 3 through 10, covers the analysis of statically determinate beams, trusses, and rigid frames.

Structural analysis is the prediction of the performance of a given structure under prescribed loads and/or other external e¤ects, such as support movements and temperature changes. The performance characteristics commonly of interest in the design of structures are (1) stresses or stress resultants, such as axial forces, shear forces, and bending moments; (2) deflections; and (3) support reactions. Thus, the analysis of a structure usually involves the determination of these quantities as caused by a given loading condition. The objective of this text is to present the methods for the analysis of structures in static equilibrium.
