PH249 — Statics
PH249 - Statics PH249 - Statics 3 Credit(s) Statics is typically the first course in engineering problem-solving, and it provides the foundation for many future engineering courses. Taking this course before transferring will quicken your way to a B.S. in Engineering. Statics will introduce you to the mechanics of rigid bodies in static equilibrium where you will solve practical engineering problems involving the loads carried by structural components using vector analysis (both 2D and 3D) applied to rigid body systems and subsystems. Content includes static equilibrium, force and moment resultants, free body diagrams, distributed loads, trusses, frames and machines, internal forces, shear and moment diagrams, and friction.
