Eighth edition by R.C. Hibbeler published by Pearson Prentice Hall. Divided into three main parts covering classical and matrix analysis methods. Contains approximately 70% new problems reviewed by multiple experts
SAP2000 is a finite-element structural analysis and design program. Program creates models using physical members as single objects. Results are reported for overall object, not individual sub-elements
Calculator determines moment of inertia, centroid, and section modulus for various shapes. Supports up to three sections before free account required. Free version includes basic calculations, paid version shows full hand calculations
Influence lines graph structural function variations under unit loads. Used for beams, trusses, bridges, and other structures with moving loads. Shows maximum load effects for reactions, shear, moment, and deflection
Structural analysis uses simplified models for engineering decisions. Determines effects of loads on physical structures and components. Computes deformations, forces, stresses, and stability. Results often preclude physical tests
Bending moment is the reaction induced in structural elements under external forces. Beams are the most common structural elements subjected to bending moments. Beams can be simply supported, encastre, cantilever, or have fixed ends
