Known as the professionals' bible, Standard Handbook of Machine Design puts the formulas, solutions, and reference material engineers need at their fingertips. Definitive and comprehensive, this superlative reference provides:

  • Two new chapters on the evolution of a successful machine design and pressure cylinders
  • Classic computational methods
  • Current codes and standards
  • Comprehensive design solutions for topics such as Cams, Gears, Springs, Clutches, Brakes, and Bolted and Welded connections
  • A thesaurus of mechanisms
  • Tables, standards, and code data
  • Reorganization for quick look-up of information

About the Editors

Joseph E. Shigley (deceased) was awarded the B.S.M.E. and B.S.E.E. degrees from Purdue University, and an M.S. from the University of Michigan. He was Professor Emeritus at the University of Michigan, Fellow in the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, and received the Worcester Reed Warner medal in 1977 and their Machine Design Award in 1985. He was the author of eight books, including Theory of Machines and Mechanisms (with John J. Uicker, Jr.), and Applied Mechanics of Materials. Shigley began Machine Design as sole author in 1956, and it evolved into Mechanical Engineering Design. He was Coeditor-in-Chief of the Standard Handbook of Machine Design setting the model for such textbooks.

Charles R. Mischke, Ph.D., is Professor Emeritus of Mechanical Engineering, Iowa State University, Ames, Iowa. He has authored many technical papers on designing to a reliability specification, computer-aided design, and design morphology. His was Coeditor-in-Chief, with J.E. Shigley, of the Standard Handbook of Machine Design, Second Edition, 1996.

Thomas H. Brown, Jr., Ph.D., PE, is a Faculty Associate at North Carolina State University. He currently manages both the FE review program and the Civil Engineering PE Review Program at the University’s Institute for Transportation Research and Education (ITRE). In addition to fulfilling his course development and teaching responsibilities, Dr. Brown also teaches review courses for the Mechanical Engineering PE Review Program offered by the university and a private professional development firm. Prior to coming to NC State, Dr. Brown worked as a mechanical engineer for Scientific-Atlanta, Inc., Fluor Daniel Construction, and Burlington Industries, where he specialized in product development and machine design.
