Mechanics for Technology

Catalog description

This course will examine the mathematical determination of stress and deflection for materials having applied loads of normal shear, torsion, bending or a combination of these. Emphasis is placed of the behavior of engineering materials and the deflection of beams and column action. Topics will include stress, strain, torsion, shear & moment diagrams, bending and shear, deflection, beam design, and columns. Students will also explore bolted and welded connections and stress concentrations. Grad on A-F basis only. Credit Hour s : 3 Prerequisites: Grade of C- or higher in ENGTC 1250 . Restricted to Engineering Technology students only
