CAEE 232 - Solid Mechanics

When Offered: F, S, SS

3 Credit(s)
3 Lecture Hour(s)
0 Lab Hour(s)

This course provides a comprehensive introduction to mechanics of materials, focusing on the analysis of stress, strain, and deformation in engineering structures. Topics covered include axial, torsional, bending, and combined stress analysis; deformation and deflection of shafts and beams; transformation of stress and strain; column buckling; statically indeterminate beams; and simple connections. The course emphasizes both theoretical concepts and practical applications, enabling students to analyze and design basic structural components and systems.

Prerequisite: CAEE 231 and MATH 132.
