STATICS
BMCG 1113
SEMESTER 1
SESSION 2014/2015
1.0 OBJECTIVES
The principal objective is to introduce the fundamentals concept of mechanics in solving the engineering mechanics problems in static conditions.
2.0 LEARNING OUTCOMES
On successful completion of this course, student should be able to: LO1 Describe and apply the basic concepts and fundamental principles of engineering mechanics (statics). LO2 Analyze and solve equilibrium problems of particle and rigid body. LO3 Work as an effective member of a team to solve engineering mechanics (statics) problems.
3.0 SYNOPSIS
The engineering mechanics of statics provides an introduction and the basic concept of statics as physical sciences, system of units, scalars and vectors, Free Body Diagram, forces system, force system resultants and moment, equilibrium of a particle, equilibrium of a rigid body, structural analysis (trusses analysis and simple frames and machines), friction and center of gravity and centroid.
