Shigley's Mechanical Engineering Design

Mcgraw-Hill Series in Mechanical Engineering

by Richard G. Budynas, J. Keith Nisbett

Shigley’s Mechanical Engineering Design is intended for students beginning the study of mechanical engineering design. Students will find that the text inherently directs them into familiarity with both the basics of design decisions and the standards of industrial components. It combines the straightforward focus on fundamentals that instructors have come to expect, with a modern emphasis on design and new applications. The ninth edition of Shigley’s Mechanical Engineering Design maintains the approach that has made this book the standard in machine design for nearly 50 years.

If you’re looking for your next heart-wrenching book, look no further. I’m not really a crier when I read, but this one really got me. 🥺😢

Banger.

This book is surprisingly good for mechanical engineers/machinists/ hobbyist makers.

It is a really thick book with tons of in-depth theoretical and practical knowledge. It even has end-of-chapter exercises for god sake!

If you are really serious about designing mechanical systems, this is a must. I wish I had read this earlier.

practical and detailed.

Machine design class was solid another class with a prof doing to much

I read this when I was a student - I was able to keep ahead of the class by reading the topic ahead of time. It's a really good professional book, and has a lot of knowledge and tables that most engineering designers wont know about unless they've read this. My favourite textbook.

A very useful book for engineers!
But advanced problem solving is needed which i had some difficulty with. But the information provided is top notch!

Good

so this is supposed to be the holy grail of meche or whatever but it is mediocre at best. might have been better in like the 70's before i could just google one of 500 billion coefficients

Good book

I am taking this course as it requested from my university to complete my BS degree. It is really intersting and powerful book. To whom concern with Machine Design, I suggest this book to build your knowledge in this subject.

Useful reference for design work. I used it all through undergrad
