PEARSON INDIA Structural Analysis: Skills For Practice, 1/E by James Hanson
Structural Analysis: Skills for Practice encourages engineering
students to develop their intui??on and the habit of evalua??ng the
reasonableness of structural analysis results. The author presents
examples and homework problems that incorporate a consistent
thought process structure–guess, calculate, and evaluate their
results–helping students develop the metacogni??ve skill of thinking
about their own thought process. Drawing upon the evalua??on
skills gathered from a six year project with experienced structural
engineers, Hanson's Structural Analysis helps students learn skills
to transi??on from novice to expert faster and become more
competent in their careers."
