Roark's Formulas for Stress & Strain
Seventh Edition
edited by Warren C. Young
With each succeeding edition, this renowned reference has proven itself as
the be-all, end-all resource for designers, engineers, and analysts working
with calculations of loads and stress. The Seventh Edition is no exception,
as it carries on the book’s tradition of presenting equations and diagrams of
structural properties—all in an easy-to-use, thumb-through format.
Offering
improved readability, the latest edition of Roark's Formulas for Stress and
Strain is truly the best Roark's yet, and the one reference that you’ll turn
to most, project after project, year after year.
