TEXT-BOOK ON THE STRENGTH OF 



MATERIALS (Revised Edition) 



By S. E. SLOCUM, Assistant Professor of Mathematics in the University of Illinois, and 

 E. L. HANCOCK, Instructor in Applied Mechanics in Purdue University 



8vo, cloth, xii + 314 pages, illustrated, $3.00 



A TEXT-BOOK which is thoroughly representative of the best 

 modern theory and practice, and at the same time sufficiently ele- 

 mentary for the use of students of a junior grade in technical and 

 engineering schools. The first part is devoted to a theoretical discus- 

 sion of the Strength of Materials for use in the class room, while the 

 second part consists of a description of the physical properties of 

 materials, with methods of testing, etc., and is intended for use as a 

 laboratory manual in connection with the class work. 



ALBERT E. GREENE, Junior Professor of Civil Engineering, 

 University of Michigan: The book contains a great deal of infor- 

 mation which is available nowhere else in English. It will be a valu- 

 able book of reference to all interested in the subject.
