Overall It was a useful book. Chapters 1-3 were too wordy for my taste, and really suffered from poor organization. There is a lot of referencing figures not on the page throughout the book, however once you get into the meat of the book (chapter 5+) it really streamlines and becomes a valuable study aid.

I had bought this book because it was cheaper as an SI version. Luckily the professor assigned his own problems for hw. So the minor differences between this and the non SI version did not matter. (Differences I saw were predominately in the units and the assignment problems/ exercises were slightly different in terms of numbers. ) But overall great and easy explanations of concepts and how to solve problems.

It's worth it to by the soft cover for this class, its not missing any material and will save you some good bucks.

great book. very clear. got an A in my strength of materials class

The text by Gere and Goodno is a current version of the study of Strength of Materials, that element of Statics and Structures which considers the effects of loads on structures and ascertaining the maximum carrying capacity.There are three main elements in understanding the subject:1. Understanding the basic elements of statics; namely i. the sum of forces and moments equal zero, ii. stress is a force per unit area, iii. strain is a multiple of stress unless it is no longer so.2. Applying geometry and trigonometry to static systems. This means having a good grasp of angles and distances so as best to allocate loads.3. Paying attention to units. There is often a plethora of mixed units from lbs, N, kg, g, Pa, etc thus must be equated and often lead to either over or under stating the results.That is it. There frankly is not much more. Like books covering this material for well over a hundred years this text does so as well. The coverage includes:1. Stress and strain principles.2. Applications to beams and cylinders. This is where getting the geometry correct starts to become important.3. Bending of beams. This is the classic analysis of beams and determining maximum stress and seeing if one’s design is well within limits.4. Columns and similar structures.5. Indeterminate structures, the ones where there are an excess of givens.6. Collapse and breakage.These topics are all classic ones. The text is targeted at the undergraduate market.I first took this material some fifty five years ago using a text by Shanley. The difference is striking. Let me list them:1. Cost: The price then was in the single digits yet accounting for inflation the current text is 3 to 4 times more costly.2. Pictures: Like so many texts this is filled with color pictures driving up the cost and actually distracting from the pedagogical approach. One wonders why the authors allow the publisher to embellish the text with a plethora of unrelated materials. Do the students today demand this entertainment?3. Cohesion. The text covers the material expected but does so in my opinion in a somewhat confusing manner at times. This issue is enhanced at times by the layout of examples where the color and presentation make them unreadable and confusing.4. Problems. In today’s environment there are many computer based approaches and tools that having hundreds of rote problems is questionable. Back in the late 50s and early 60s all we had was a slide rule. That in a sense reinforced structure. An engineer used engineering paper, paper with many small squares, to write down the problem, then draw the structure, lay out the approach to a solution and then step by step go through the process carefully checking units and calculations and finally underlining the answer for the grader. The process of doing this reinforces the concepts. Today there is a loose amalgam of back of the envelope calculations, spread sheets and even some home brewed programming. Thus perhaps the problems should be changed to reflect the design approach and not some set of PE Exam questions.5. Focus. As one progresses through the material one jumps from a concept to an example to a set of questions. There is in my opinion a confusing jump from principles, extensions, and examples.Overall the text does present the material, it is complete, and it can be obtained, albeit with some difficulty. I suspect that if one works through the problems one will do well on the PE exams. However there may be a disconnect from the academic and the practical.

This is a great textbook for learning solid mechanics (mechanics of materials). The examples are clear and it is an easy read. Highly recommended even if you're supposed to use a different book for a class.

I love the format of the book. It was really great to have for class.

Book arrived on time but I had to drop the class due to a rescheduling that made it impossible for me to keep the class. I sold the book to another in the class for what I had in the book and everything worked out good.
