MEGT 2030 - Statics

Prerequisite: ENGT 1000 and MATH 1113
This course introduces the student to the study of forces acting on objects and their effects on a body at rest or at constant velocity. Static principles are applied in analyzing structural systems. Topics include: vectors, resultants, equilibrium of force systems, free body diagrams (FBD), analysis of trusses and frames, distributed loading and geometric properties of areas. Emphasis is placed on bodies at rest in both 2 dimensions and 3 dimensions. Contact hours: Class - 3, Lab - 0. Credit hours: 3 (T)
