Objective

After completing the course the student:
- Understands the meaning of the strength analysis with respect to safety of structures and in economical use of materials.
- Can design relatively simple structures where the force quantities can be evaluated by means of statics equilibrium.

- Pure shear stresses in pins and screws
- Stress section modulus, shear stress and twisting angle in torque shafts.
- Force and moment diagrams in beam bending
- Stress section modulus and bending stress in beam bending
- Shear stresses in beam bending
