Course 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 by method of
integration. Properties of surfaces: Area moment and centroid; moments and product of inertia;
principal directions.
Course Objective
Mechanics is the physical science that deals with the effects of forces on objects. Mechanics can
be divided into three main branches: rigid-body mechanics, deformable-body mechanics, and fluid
mechanics. This course is an introductory level course on rigid-body mechanics.The objective of
this course is to introduce students to the fundamental concepts and principles employed by
engineers - whether civil, mechanical, aeronautical, etc. - in the design of structures of all sorts,
sizes and purpose.

Course Learning Outcomes
On successful completion of this course, students will be able to:
Course Assignments
A. Homeworks and Quizzes (10%): Five problem sets will be assigned throughout the semes-
ter. Depending on the performance of the class pop-up quizzes can be given.
B. Midterm Exams (60%): There will be two in-class midterm exams.
C. Final (30%): There will be a cumulative final.
ii. Apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering to design and implement original,
innovative and sustainable civil engineering systems or processes to meet desired needs within a
greater societal context

Week Topics
In order to be admitted to the final examination, a student must have attended at least two
thirds of the lectures. Furthermore, students must have obtained an average of at least 30 %
from the two midterm examinations given. Students not fulfilling these conditions will not be
permitted to enter the final examination unless they have an average of at least 70% from the
4
midterm examinations and assignments. Students not given the permission to take the final ex-
amination will automatically receive the grade FX at the end of the semester.

Disability Support
If you have a disabling condition which may interfere with your ability to successfully complete
this module, please contact Dr. Aslı Bugay (email: [email protected] ) or Dr. Tolga İnan

dents.
Make Up Exams
Make-up exams for midterm exams will NOT be offered generally. If you have a legitimate reason
for missing an exam, then you must arrange to make up the exam BEFORE the scheduled time of
the exam. The only exceptions are illness or emergency (e.g., death in family, a traffic accident,
etc.). In case of an illness or emergency you need to supply a documentation that supports your
claim.
