Basics of StaticsLaajuus (5 cr)

Objectives

After completing the course, the student will be familiar with the basic concepts of statics, free images of structures,
support reactions, equations of equation, stresses and their resultant and effects. The student understands what different forms of exertion mean. The student is familiar with statically defined structures and can determine their stress patterns and dimensioning stresses. He / she is able to calculate and draw the stresses of a continuous beam and a simple circumferential structure by means of tables and diagrams and understands the effect of moving load on static quantities.

Content
