Objectives
Developing skills for solving problems on statics of particles and rigid bodies at rest in line with the current civil engineering applications.
Program
Introduction to vectorial mechanics. Applied Statics: loading systems; support conditions; structural systems. Concept and properties of hinges, pistons and slides. Equilibrium of isostatic structures: support reactions, free-body diagrams and internal forces. Plane trusses: stability and determinacy, methods to determine axial forces. Cables.
Evaluation Methodology
A written test during the classes for students who delivered the work proposed during the semester period; One final written exam during the regular assessment period.
