About this title

Synopsis

With the first edition being published over twenty years ago, the aim of this edition remains the same which is to place proper emphasis on the methods of matrix structural analysis used in current practice, and to provide the groundwork for forthcoming practice and allied, more advanced subject matter. This edition features new chapters on the nonlinear analysis of framed structures and treatment of the solution of nonlinear problems
