Features: This book is based on the textbook of Structural Mechanics for Civil Engineering Undergraduate Programs and the Basic Requirements for Structural Mechanics Course Teaching in Higher Education Engineering Undergraduate Programs. It is divided into 11 chapters, covering the following topics: geometric analysis of plane systems, internal force and displacement calculations for statically determinate structures, internal force and displacement calculations for statically indeterminate structures, influence lines, dynamic calculations for structures, stability calculations for structures, and ultimate load calculations for structures. Each chapter summarizes and organizes the basic concepts, fundamental principles, and analytical calculation methods involved. It provides more detailed and in-depth elaboration and discussion on key and difficult content compared to general textbooks, illustrated with typical examples to explain the thinking process, methods, and techniques for solving problems. Each chapter also provides a large number of exercises, including true/false questions, fill-in-the-blanks, multiple-choice, and analytical calculation problems, with detailed solutions provided for each to help readers master the basic principles and methods of structural mechanics and improve their analytical and computational skills. This book serves as a supplementary reading material for undergraduate students of civil engineering programs studying structural mechanics. The first eight chapters are also suitable for students in vocational programs. It can also be used by adult education correspondence students and self-study examination candidates in related fields.
