Summary: Great for study if you are graphically oriented
Comment: This book was used in a upper-level statics class at the University of Oregon Architecture Department. I found this book very useful in understanding concepts dealing with structures. The book is organized very well and the figures are very helpful in their explainations. The methods that they use to direct the reader through their process are relatively clear and concise.

In a book like this it would be really helpful if the mathmatical elements which tend to be more accurate were paired with the problems and exercises at the end of the chapters. When dealing with statics, classes are taught with a mathmatical emphasis and being able to link the two would benefit the student.
