Course Objective

The aim of this course is to provide the student with fundamental concepts of structural mechanics, introduce to various vector quantities and operations, investigate static equilibrium conditions, determine the centroid and moments of inertia of sections, analyze internal forces in plane truss systems and beams, teach the mechanical properties of materials, introduce to stress and strain relations, state of simple and combined stresses, different types of stresses and their distributions, analysis of stress, elastic curve, and also to demonstrate the importance of these concepts in architectural design of structures.
