EGEN201 — Engineering Mechanics–Statics
EGEN 201 - Engineering Mechanics–Statics EGEN 201 - Engineering Mechanics–Statics 3 credits (Hrs: 3 Lec.) The study of the laws governing equilibrium. Uses equilibrium equations to compute the reactions and internal forces resulting from applied loads. Covers addition of forces, equilibrium of particles in two and three dimensions, equilibrium of structures, member forces for trusses and hinged frames, internal shear and moment forces plus shear and moment diagrams for beams, friction, centroids of areas and solids, moments of inertia of areas and solids. Course generally year round.
