Civil Engineering Textbook Appraisal

Structural Analysis Textbook by McCormac

This item is a hardbound textbook with a dark green fabric-covered spine, indicating a durable and perhaps older binding style. The title "STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS" is prominently displayed in a vertical orientation along the spine, printed in gold-colored capital letters, framed within a gold-bordered rectangular box. Above the title, also in gold lettering, is the author's name, "McCormac", oriented vertically. Below the main title box, near the bottom of the spine, the word "International" is visible, also in gold, suggesting a publisher or edition detail. The book appears to be of standard textbook dimensions. The overall condition is described as good, with no immediately visible major damage such as tears, significant scuffs, or discoloration on the spine. The gold lettering shows no apparent fading or flaking, suggesting that the book has been well-preserved or subject to minimal wear. The construction appears sturdy, consistent with textbooks designed for academic use. The plain, functional design suggests that the book's primary purpose is educational, likely dating from the mid-to-late 20th century given the binding style and typography.
