MST 220 - Applied Strengths of Materials
5.0 Credits
Study of forces acting on structures at rest; free body diagrams, trusses, friction. Analysis of tension, compression, shear, deformation, and stress acting on members. Prerequisite: MATH& 142 (was MATH 132), PHYS& 221 (was PHYS 101), and MST 210 each with a grade of 2.0 or higher.
Course Objectives
Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:
- Explain and apply the principles of vector mechanics, vector algebra, and of representation of physical quantities by a vector notation. [REASON]
- Explain the physical meaning of a force and a moment equilibrium. [COMMUNICATE]
- Draw a correct and complete Free Body Diagram of forces and moments for a structure. [COMMUNICATE]
- Select and apply tools to analyze tension, compression, shear, deformation, torsion, and stress of members. [REASON]
- Apply the basics of materials testing procedures to measure mechanical properties. [REASON ]
- Correctly use computerized materials test instrumentation and interpret test results. [REASON]
- Run tensile, compressive, flexural, peel tests, and interpret test curves. [ACT]
