5.0 out of 5 stars Every structural engineer should have a copy., Mar 13 2001

Mr ANDREW M LESTER (Cumbria, England, Europe) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Roark's Formulas for Stress and Strain (Hardcover)
A very usefull reference book for the practising structural or mechanical engineer. However it could be significantly improved by some modernisation and rationalisation ie: removing references out-dated information and references from the 1920's and 1930's,etc. Also by standardising variables and equations, eg: the variable for the width of a section may be 'b' in one chapter 'd' in another, also 'tw' may represent flange thickness rather than web thickness, etc. The book examples are all in U.S. (lbs, feet) units, annoying the European (N, m) user, and may start on one page, then be interupted by 20 pages of tables before continuing on. So the general layout could do with being significantly improved.

This review is from: Roarks Formulas Stress & Strain (Paperback)
Excellent reference book for structural and mechanical engineers. Arrived late, but Canada Post went on strike shortly after I ordered it, so not the seller's fault.
