CET 3135Mechanics of Materials w Lab

Catalog

Prerequisites: CET 2150 and COM 2610 with grades of C or better or Permission of Instructor. Corequisites: MTH 2410 This course introduces the theory of materials, stresses, and strains in members subjected to tension, compression, torsion, and shear. Flexural and shearing stresses in beams, principal stresses, and deflection of beams, column anlysis, and indeterminate structures are also introduced. The laboratory component of the course is structured to give students experience in the use of laboratory equipment for conducting axial loading, shear and bending tests on various materials.
