Statics is an introduction to learning and applying the principles required to solve engineering problems. Concepts will be applied in this course from previous courses taken in basic math and physics. The course addresses the modeling and analysis of static equilibrium problems with an emphasis on real world engineering applications and problem solving. The purpose of this course is to study methods for quantifying the forces between bodies and defining their equilibrium. Forces are responsible for maintaining balance and causing motion of bodies, or changes in their shape. Motion and changes in shape are critical to the functionality of objects and structure. Statics is an essential prerequisite for many branches of engineering, such as civil engineering and mechanical engineering, which address the various consequences of forces.
