Looking for good mechanical eng. handbook. I am serching for one that can be downloaded to a palm or other hand held pc. But any recomendation of a good paper handbook will also be great. If there is where to buy it on the net even better.

Hi! Perry chemical engineering Handbook,Marks Mechanical Enginnering hdbk, and Kent series on Power, Design / Production .For more general engineering handbook check out Eshbach.

 

[Fugeguy]

Marks' Standard Handbook for Mechanical Engineers

Roark's Formulas for Stress and Strain

American Machinists' Handbook

Hicks Standard Handbook of Engineering Calculations

Perry's Chemical Engineering Hanbook.

Every engineer should have these and a few books specific to their area of work.

If you want them cheap hit Ebay.

All can be bought on Amazon.

If you hit the engineering trade rags some can be obtained cheaply by joining a book "club", but like Columbia house, get in , get out and quit quickly.

Do your engineering student friends a favor and buy them a Marks for their freshman year. They should take it everywhere, compare sample solutions to their course texts, and tab out everything as they go. Then, come EIT time, they have the perfect, single resource. When they start that first job, they'll have a tried and true if worn buddy to go on the desk that will scream "experience" and "thinker" instead of "kid."
