Preface

Structural mechanics is the foundation of architectural or civil engineering and is taught during freshman or sophomore in college. The theoretical principle challenges the students as a formidable subject, and there are often many hard-tounderstand cases of how actual structures are applied. It is because the textbooks simply represent members such as beam, frame, truss as a line and support condition as a symbol, making it difficult to picture how actual structures are used. Moreover, although students may pass engineering tests such as moment distribution, characteristics of member section, analysis of a truss, analysis of a statically indeterminate structure, and principle of bending resistance of concrete section, they often have trouble in grasping the actual principle behind the tests. This textbook was conceived with the intention to help the students comprehend the resistance principle of a structure through simple model tests and understand how dynamic computational equation is used to represe
