""Stresses In Structures"" by A. H. Heller is a comprehensive guide to understanding the principles of stress analysis in engineering structures. The book covers the fundamental concepts of stress and strain, as well as the behavior of materials under different types of loading. It also includes detailed discussions on the analysis of beams, columns, and frames, as well as the design of structural elements such as trusses and arches.The book is organized into six chapters, each of which covers a specific aspect of stress analysis. Chapter one introduces the basic concepts of stress and strain, while chapter two discusses the behavior of materials under axial, bending, and torsional loading. Chapter three focuses on the analysis of beams, including the calculation of shear and bending moment diagrams. Chapter four covers the analysis of columns, while chapter five discusses the analysis of frames.The final chapter of the book is dedicated to the design of structural elements. It includes discussions on the design of trusses, arches, and other structural components. Throughout the book, the author provides numerous examples and problems to help readers develop their understanding of the concepts presented.Overall, ""Stresses In Structures"" is an essential resource for students and professionals in the field of structural engineering. It provides a clear and concise overview of the principles of stress analysis and their application to the design of engineering structures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
