I am looking for some books related to mechanical connection and interlock design. Could anyone recommend any book particularly to introduce these kind of design in very detail.

Thanks,

Bowman Distribution, 800-726-9626, has a book called "Fastener Facts" that is very good.

Davidstecker,

Thank for your input. I just browsed its Table of Contents. It's quite good but not what I am looking for. I am looking for books to talk about the design of interlocks, snap-in, etc.

I found one! The First Snap-fit Handbook: Creating And Managing Attachments for Plastic Parts (Hardcover). But it is for plastic only. I usually design interlock connections in application of aluminum structures.
