ENGR 250 - Engineering Mechanics - Statics

Institution:

Community College of Beaver County

Subject:

Description:

Statics main topics review basic properties of solids. Students learn the engineering approach to problem solving while working on analysis and design of structural components subject to compression, torsion, bending, and more. The course begins with a discussion of vector algebra and Newtonian mechanics. It then continues with classification and problem solving of systems of forces and their resultants, equilibrium, beams, trusses, friction, center of gravity, and parabolic and catenary cables. Students learn application of principles through real-world problem solving, thus gaining insight from experience. 3.0.3
