Structural Analysis 10th Edition by R. C. Hibbeler (Hardcover)

Structural Analysis, 10th Edition by R. C. Hibbeler is the hardcover Pearson textbook civil engineering students use for a first course in analyzing trusses, beams and frames.

Hibbeler’s book is known for its clear worked examples and large, realistic problem sets. The 10th edition adds roughly 30 percent new problems, expands the discussion of structural modeling so a structure can be set up correctly for computer analysis, updates loads to the ASCE/SEI 7-16 standard, adds material on catenary cables and clarifies how to draw moment and deflection diagrams for beams and frames.

What's included

• Structural Analysis, 10th Edition, by Russell C. Hibbeler
• Hardcover textbook, published by Pearson
• ISBN-13 9780134610672
• Covers statically determinate structures, trusses, cables and arches, influence lines, deflections, the force method, slope-deflection, moment distribution and the stiffness method
• Hundreds of end-of-chapter problems at graded difficulty

Who it's for

Second- and third-year civil engineering majors, architecture students taking a structures sequence, and working engineers who want to review the classical methods before the FE Civil exam or the PE Civil Structural exam.

Why this edition

The 10th edition is the one most US programs adopted after 2018, so homework numbering and chapter order will match the syllabus. The emphasis on modeling is the practical change: it teaches how to idealize supports, members and loads before the numbers go into software, which is the skill reviewers and senior engineers look for in a new graduate.

Frequently asked questions

Does this include MasteringEngineering access?

No. This listing is for the printed hardcover book only. Online homework access, if your course requires it, is purchased separately through the school.

Is Hibbeler’s Structural Analysis suitable for self-study?

Yes. Each method is introduced with a procedure-for-analysis box and several fully worked examples, and selected answers are in the back of the book.

Which Structural Analysis edition is this?

This is the 10th edition, ISBN 9780134610672, the hardcover US edition from Pearson.
