Newnes Mechanical Engineer's Pocket Book Summary

Newnes Mechanical Engineer's Pocket Book by Roger Timings (Technical , formerly at Henley College, Coventry, UK. One of the UK's leading s of textbooks on manufacturing and engineering.)

Newnes Mechanical Engineer's Pocket Book is an easy to use pocket book intended to aid mechanical engineers engaged in design and manufacture and others who require a quick, day-to-day reference for useful workshop information. The book is a compilation of useful data, providing abstracts of many technical materials in various technical areas. The text is divided into five main parts: Engineering Mathematics and Science, Engineering Design Data, Engineering Materials, Computer Aided Engineering, and Cutting Tools. These main sections are further subdivided into topic areas that discuss such topics as engineering mathematics, power transmission and fasteners, mechanical properties, and polymeric materials. Mechanical engineers and those into mechanical design and shop work will find the book very useful.
