COURSE OUTLINE COURSE CODE : CE221 (4,1) 4

COURSE TITLE : STATICS

LOCAL CREDIT : 4

ECTS CREDIT : 6

LECTURER : NİDAİ KANDEMİR

COURSE HOUR : 4 hrs/week OFFICE HOUR : 2 hrs/week TYPE OF COURSE : Compulsory

PREREQUISITIES : PHY101 (PHYSICS I) LEVEL OF COURSE : 2^nd year, 1^st semester

CATALOGUE DESCRIPTION : Introduction to rigid body mechanics. Equivalent force systems: concepts of moment, couple, resultant. Equilibrium: free-body diagram; equations of equilibrium. Structural analysis: trusses, beams, shear force and bending moment diagrams by method of sections and method of integration. Properties of surfaces; area moment and centroid; moments and product of inertia; principal directions.

LEARNING OUTCOMES : By the end of this course students should be able to;

 Students will be able to draw complete free-body diagrams and write appropriate equilibrium equations from the free-body diagram, including the support reactions on a structure.

 be able to analyze various statically determinate systems such as beams, and trusses,

 calculate moment of inertia of the composite areas.

LEARNING / TEACHING METHOD : Theoretical discussions of each new concept with number of examples are provided. Students will develop their understanding of the course content through reading of the sections of the textbook and practice solving problem through the breleated topics.
