Fully revised and with a new chapter and international case studies, this second edition of the best-selling book traces how artists and designers continue to adapt and incorporate 3D printing technology into their work and explains how the creative industries are directly interfacing with this new technology.

The Mechanical Design Process combines a practical overview of the design process with case material and real-life engineering insights. Ullman's work as an innovative designer comes through consistently, and has made this book a favorite with readers.

This book covers fastening screw technology, verification concepts, applications in steel construction and other chapter topics. Powder-actuated Fasteners and Fastening Screws in Steel Construction introduces the basic principles and methods of using fastening screws in steel construction. 

Illustrations aid readers in understanding the features and characteristics of the screws. The powder-actuated fastening technique is described as is fastening screw technology and its applications.

The fully updated Fifth Edition of John H. Bickford's classic work, updated by Michael Oliver, provides a practical, detailed guide for the design threaded bolted joints, the tightening of threaded joints, and the latest design procedures for long-term life. New sections on materials, threads, and their strength have been added, and coverage of FEA for design analysis is now included.

Provides a state-of-the-art summary of the experimental and theoretical studies undertaken to provide an understanding of the behavior and strength of riveted and bolted structural joints. 

Since the first edition of this book was published in 1974, numerous international studies on the strength and performance of bolted connections have been conducted, and new specifications for structural joints have been developed by the Research Council on Structural Connections. 

Blake's Design of Mechanical Joints, Second Edition, is an updated revision of Alexander Blake’s authoritative book on mechanical joint and fastener design. This revision brings Blake’s 1985 volume up-to-date with modern developments in joint design, and recent technological advances in metallic and non-metallic materials, and in adhesive joining technologies.
