Abstract
SINCE its original publication about five years ago, this work has proved itself a very valuable introduction to the basic conceptions and principles of structural theory as related to trusses, rigid frames and space frameworks, and has asserted itself as a trustworthy book of reference. In preparing the second edition, the authors have taken this opportunity to effect some revision, particularly in enlarging the section on moment distribution and in adding one on the column analogy for rigid frame analysis.
