Shigley's mechanical engineering design. (Eleventh edition in SI units)

Shigley's Mechanical Engineering Design is a standard text intended for beginners of the subject area. This revised edition in SI units focuses on blending fundamental concepts with modern emphasis on design and new applications. It covers the basics of machine design, including the design process, engineering mechanics and materials, failure prevention under static and variable loading, and characteristics of the principal types of mechanical elements. As an indispensable reference text, it makes students familiar with the basis for decisions as well as the standards of industrial components and helps them transition into practicing engineers.

McGraw Hill's Connect is available as an optional add on item. Connect is an integrated learning system that empowers students by continuously adapting to deliver exactly what they need, when they need it, and how they need it so that class time is more effective. Connect allows instructors to assign assignments and tests easily and automatically grades and records scores of the student's work.
