About the Book

The 5th edition of the classic STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS by Aslam Kassamali teaches students the basic principles of structural analysis using the classical approach. The chapters are presented in a logical order, moving from an introduction of the topic to an analysis of statically determinate beams, trusses and rigid frames, to the analysis of statistically indeterminate structures. The text includes solved problems to help illustrate the fundamental concepts. Access to interactive software for analyzing plane framed structures is available for download via the text's companion website.

Table of Contents:
PART I: INTRODUCTION TO STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS AND LOADS. 1. Introduction to Structural Analysis. 2. Loads on Structures. PART II: ANALYSIS OF STATICALLY DETERMINATE STRUCTURES. 3. Equilibrium and Support Reactions. 4. Plane and Space Trusses. 5. Beams and Frames: Shear and Bending Moment. 6. Deflections of Beams: Geometric Methods. 7. Deflections of Trusses, Beams, and Frames: Work – Energy Methods. 8. Influence Lines. 9. Application of Influence Lines. 10. Analysis of Symmetric Structures. PART III: ANALYSIS OF STATICALLY INDETERMINATE STRUCTURES. 11. Introduction to Statically Indeterminate Structures. 12. Approximate Analysis of Rectangular Building Frames. 13. Method of Consistent Deformations – Force Method. 14. Influence Lines for Statically Indeterminate Structures. 15. Slope-Deflection Method. 16. Moment-Distribution Method. 17. Introduction to Matrix Structural Analysis. Appendix A: Areas and Centroids of Geometric Shapes. Appendix B: Review of Matrix Algebra. Appendix C: Computer Software. Appendix D: Three-Moment Equation.

About the Author :
Aslam Kassimali is professor and distinguished teacher in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Southern Illinois University, where he teaches linear and nonlinear structural analysis as well as structural dynamics and stability. Dr. Kassimali was born in Karachi, Pakistan, where he received his B.E. in civil engineering from the University of Karachi. He earned his M.E. in civil engineering from Iowa State University. After completing further studies and research at the University of Missouri at Columbia, he received an M.S. and Ph.D. in civil engineering. Dr. Kassimali’s practical experience includes work as a structural design engineer for Lutz, Daily and Brain, Consulting Engineers in Shawnee Mission, Kansas, and work as a structural engineering specialist and analyst for Sargent & Lundy Engineers in Chicago, Illinois. He joined Southern Illinois University - Carbondale as an assistant professor and was promoted to the rank of professor in 1993. Consistently recognized for teaching excellence, Dr. Kassimali has received more than 20 awards for outstanding teaching at Southern Illinois University - Carbondale, and he was awarded the title of distinguished teacher in 2004. Dr. Kassimali has authored or co-authored four textbooks on structural analysis and mechanics and has published a number of papers in the area of nonlinear structural analysis. He is a life member of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) and has served on the ASCE Structural Division Committees on Shock and Vibratory Effects, Special Structures and Methods of Analysis.

Review :
"The textbook is well-written. It starts with topics that are already familiar to students (e.g. statically determinate analysis of truss and beam), then move to new and challenging topics (e.g.influence line and statically indeterminate structural analysis). The connection between the subjects are good." "This is a very comprehensive textbook. The real strength of the book is Part Three on indeterminate structures and Chapter 10 on symmetry/antisymmetry which is often missing in other texts. Reading the book, one gets the sense that the author has much practical experience in structural analysis and design."
