ENGR 211 — Statics

Principles of statics and particles and rigid bodies are studied with a vectorial approach. Particular attention will be given to the composition, resolution and equilibrium of coplanar and non-coplanar force systems; two dimensional trusses and frames; centroids and moments of inertia of plane areas; coulombic friction; and the distribution of shear and bending moments in simple beams.
