Version 1.3 of NCEES reference handbook for Mechanical Engineering is out

[Slay the P.E.]

Hi all,
We're currently reviewing to see if we can figure out what changed...

As per an email from NCEES "a small number of technical and editorial changes are indicated by a change in the second number" -- but they do not explicitly announce what those changes are.

 

[Slay the P.E.]

Section 9.1.16 appears to be the only new section. Potential impact only for HVAC&R folks

 

[Slay the P.E.]

The units of dynamic viscosity in this table were correct before (in version 1.2), and now (version 1.3) they're wrong.

(pg 144, Section for Simple Beam: Uniform Load) For uniform load deflection calculation; length should be to the 3 power, else you get inconsistent units.
