OVERVIEW

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.
