ENGT 313 Applied Statics

3-5 CR
This is a foundation course in engineering mechanics. Students will learn the principles of static equilibrium by applying Newton’s laws of motion to solve engineering problems with vector notation and calculus. Emphasis is placed on drawing free body diagrams and self-checking strategies. Topics include introduction to forces; 2D equilibrium of particles and rigid bodies; center of gravity and centroids; distributed loading and hydrostatics; friction; analysis of truss structures; and shear force and bending moment diagrams.
Prerequisite(s): (PHYS&114   OR PHYS& 221 ) with a C+ or higher, and (BAS-ENGT program admission OR Instructor permission).
Completion Of or Concurrent Enrollment In: Completion of (MATH& 151  OR AMAT 313 ) with a C or higher OR concurrent enrollment in (MATH& 151  OR AMAT 313 ).
