Biographical note
R.C. Hibbeler graduated from the University of Illinois-Urbana with a B.S. in Civil Engineering (major in Structures) and an M.S. in Nuclear Engineering. He obtained his PhD in Theoretical and Applied Mechanics from Northwestern University. Professor Hibbeler’s professional experience includes postdoctoral work in reactor safety and analysis at Argonne National Laboratory, and structural and stress analysis work at Chicago Bridge and Iron, as well as at Sargent and Lundy in Chicago. He has practiced engineering in Ohio, New York, and Louisiana.
Structural Analysis excels in providing a clear and thorough presentation of the theory and applications of structural analysis as it applies to trusses, beams, and frames. It empowers you to succeed by drawing upon Professor Hibbeler’s decades of classroom experience and knowledge of how students learn. Through its user-friendly, clear organization, the text helps you develop the ability to model and analyze a structure to prepare you for professional practice.
