This is the first course in engineering mechanics and covers principles of statics as applied to particles and rigid bodies in two and three dimensions under concentrated and distributed force systems. Topics include properties of forces, moments, couples and resultants; two- and three-dimensional force systems, analysis of trusses, and beams; distributed forces, shear and bending moment diagrams, center of gravity, centroids, friction, and area and mass moments of inertia.
