MEGT 2030 Statics (3-0-3)
This course introduces students 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, analysis of trusses and frames, distributed loading, and geometric properties of areas. The course emphasizes bodies at rest in both two dimensions and three dimensions.
