Find the Companion Website for Mechanics of Materials at www.mhhe.com/beerjohnston. Included on the website are lecture PowerPoints, an image library, and animations. On the site you’ll also find the Instructor’s Solutions Manual (password-protected and available to instructors only) that accompanies the seventh edition. The manual continues the tradition of exceptional accuracy and normally keeps solutions contained to a single page for easier reference. The manual includes an in-depth review of the material in each chapter and houses tables designed to assist instructors in creating a schedule of assignments for their courses. The various topics covered in the text are listed in Table I, and a suggested number of periods to be spent on each topic is indicated. Table II provides a brief description of all groups of problems and a classification of the problems in each group according to the units used. A Course Organization Guide providing sample assignment schedules is also found on the website. Via the website, instructors can also request access to C.O.S.M.O.S., the Complete Online Solutions Manual Organization System that allows instructors to create custom homework, quizzes, and tests using end-of-chapter problems from the text.
